Described by Spin as “one of the greatest living voices in rock today” and by SF Weekly as “the ensemble”, Grace Potter continues to wow critics and audiences alike with her musical accomplishments and captivating live performances. Heralded as one of today’s top live performers, Grace Potter has performed at every major music festival, from Coachella and Lollapalooza to Bonnaroo and Rock in Rio. His latest album “Daylight” was nominated for two Grammies including Best Rock Album.

The power of words is not lost on longtime American triumvirate The Devil Makes Three – Pete Bernhard, Lucia Turino and Cooper McBean. As long as they remain rooted in the troubadour traditions of wandering folk, delta blues, whiskey-soaked ragtime and reckless rock ‘n’ roll, the band nods to the author’s revolutionary agitation James Baldwin, to the boundless disillusionment of Ernest Hemingway, and the Southern Gothic malaise of Flannery O’Connor.
