Enchantress Radio on Radiofreetunes.com proudly presents a shining new recording star Devlin Miles. Songstress Devlin Miles, who headlines at the Bitter End, Kenny's Castaway, and other top venues in the Northeast, has released her first full-length CD "Autumn Fires". With her strong voice, delightful lyrics, tuneful melodies and harmonies, and a great band Devlin's music is rocking good entertainment.
Tune in to Enchantress Radio to hear the Sarah McLachlan/Linda Ronstadt like "No One Cares" and "Autumn Fires". Feel the glow of summertime fun in the catchy pop tune "I Can't Wait" on station Radio Free Tunes.
Devlin, an accomplished songwriter, released 'Autumn's Fires' to a packed house of loyal fans at The Bitter End in December 2009. The songs on “Autumn’s Fires” were inspired by the cycles of life, love, loss, and the in-betweens. Among the 9-tracks on "Autumn's Fires" are: Rush-a melodic ride to Disneyland, No One Will Notice- a beautiful broken heart, The Extra Mile- fighting your inner demons, This Guy- watch out Bernie Madoff, You and Me- the subtext in between, Folding Chair-just settles in your head, Try- motivational, I Can’t Wait- ahhh summer, Autumn’s Fires- leaves you with a burning impression. The 'Autumn Fires' CD was produced by Devlin, Rye Randa of The Ontic in Los Angeles, and Billy Jay Stein of Strange Cranium in NYC. Together the created a colorful robust sound and attention grab song structures.
Devlin's first 3 song EP "Miles To Go" sold out and is being released on i-tunes soon. It features the song "The Camera Fades" that received an honorary mention by the Great American Song Contest. The tune “Simple Life” was featured on an Indiegrrl compilation cd.
Miles’ musical style, melodic approach, enticing song structures, range from alternative rock, pop rock, and alternative country. The positive upbeat feel of her music is reminiscent of Sheryl Crow, Pat Benatar, and Linda Ronstadt. Her music is uplifting, inspirational, and down right catchy. The "Autumn Fires" CD and songs are available on CDBaby http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/devlinmiles2 and iTunes.
