Biography

There is deep soul in the music of Devon Gilfillian—but for the talented Nashville-based singer-songwriter and bandleader, that descriptor goes way beyond a mere genre classification. Growing up in Philadelphia on a steady diet of R&B, hip-hop, rock, blues, and soul music, Gilfillian gravitated to records that ignited his mind while making his body move. For him, listening to the towering icons of his musician father’s era—Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Otis Redding, The Temptations—was just as formative and exciting as discovering the new sounds of his own generation, and the beats and rhymes made by rising rap stars like Wu-Tang Clan, Kanye West, Notorious B.I.G., and Jay-Z inspired him in new ways. He began to recognize a connective thread in the sounds he loved best: from the golden throwbacks sampled by the hip-hop beat makers to the raw, emotional vocal deliveries of the Motown greats, for Gilfillian the key ingredient seemed to be the “soul”—not simply the genre, but the feeling and vibe. Following his electrifying 2016 debut EP with upbeat singles like “High” and “Troublemaker” in 2018, Gilfillian signed to Capitol Records and hit the road––performing with the likes of Anderson East, Keith Urban, Gladys Knight, Kaleo, The Fray, Mavis Staples, and more. In early 2019, Gilfillian traveled to Africa to find healing and inspiration before headlining a tour in Scandinavia and opening for Brothers Osborne on their spring tour.

LYRICS

'Cause all I really wanna (Wanna, wanna)
'Cause all I really wanna (Wanna, wanna)
'Cause all I really wanna do
Is take a little trip with you
And drive around the sun
And take you up and over the stars
Yeah, all I really wanna do
Is catch a little vibe with you
And take you to a place
Where we can be as weird as we are
That's all I really wanna

Tell me when to pick you up
I might be a little late
But there's this spot beyond the moon
And I swear, it's worth the wait

Come on, come on, come on, comе on, baby
I just wanna get to know ya

'Cause all I really wanna do
Is takе a little trip with you
And drive around the sun
And take you up and over the stars
Yeah, all I really wanna do
Is catch a little vibe with you
And take you to a place
Where we can be as weird as we are
That's all I really wanna do, oh-oh, ooh

Aries, Pisces, Scorpio
Leo, Libra, Gemini

Let's take a spin around your sign
Oh, yeah, baby
