Raised in the desert of Arizona, Devora draws inspiration from her roots, growing up around desert creatures in a western town, experiencing the sinister lawless side of desert life, and the characters she’s met along the way. In her modern goth-western vignettes she conjures images of ghost towns, dark rodeos, the haunted desert, abandoned motel rooms, skylines on fire, the open road and reckless tales of love and loss in a modern wild west. These influences have made her into a desperado of modern culture. Her sound bridges Alternative Country melodies with dark pop and rock hooks drawing you into her surrealist western world. 

Coining her own genre, “Outlaw Pop,” she weaves visual soundscapes from a moody surrealist wild-west dream world. Tales of eerie backroad encounters, Route 66, neon-laden casinos, Silver City sunsets and midnight bandits are all intricately enmeshed with strong visceral imagery and cinematic scenes straight out of the ‘dark side’ of the American southwest. Owning the road as her home, Devora’s fierce femme fatale spirit trail-blazes the way for a new frontier in contemporary culture. 

Devora is not just music, but also an ethos of the Wild West re-imagined for our current chaotic times. It’s not just her story – it’s all of our stories: To choose and be immersed in your own adventure; to harness your own inner outlaw. Her music celebrates life in the fast lane while marking the beginnings of a wild expedition ahead and the spiritedness of riding off into a pitch-black sunset.

Devora’s debut EP, ‘Outlaw’, celebrated life in the fast lane, offering an inner glimpse into a mad world of exile and rebellion, love and lawlessness, and the side roads and back alleys of modern American life.

It was her first installment of a fierce collective of stories and art that illustrate a perfect portrait of her dark wild west. The EP saw support at radio, peaking top five on the SubModern Commercial Specialty Charts, and press write-ups at places like AltPress, Inked, and Earmilk. The ‘Outlaw’ EP has garnered 2.3 million streams to date.

Devora has toured the US and was direct support on a sold-out series of dates with The Warning in the spring of 2022, as well as support for BUSH on their sold out US tour in 2023.

HALLOWS is Vanee Dusoruth and Dom Rolando, a dark electropop duo currently based in Los Angeles. Both from Mauritius, the island nation off the coast of Madagascar, the two found their way into underground music through basement punk shows as international students in the American midwest. HALLOWS started taking shape in Minneapolis before the project eventually landed in Los Angeles, via Seattle, carrying that same sense of displacement through every move. Their music sits at the intersection of 80s synth and modern electronics, equal parts dancefloor and heartbreak, built for people who feel everything too much. Live they are a different animal entirely, high energy and physically committed, the kind of performance that latches to your skin and sticks with you after you leave.
