Over a career spanning two decades, Colin Devlin and The Devlins have crafted internationally acclaimed albums and dozens of cinematic soundscapes for film and TV projects. The band's debut, Drift, received four stars in Rolling Stone, and since that time, singles such as "Waiting," "World Outside," and "Crossing the River" have introduced Colin Devlin's inimitable voice and atmospheric grooves to audiences of screen and stage.

In collaboration with longtime friend and producer Pierre Marchand (Sarah McLachlan, Rufus Wainwright), Devlin released his first solo album, Democracy of One, in 2010. This warm, intimate recording became a quick favorite of music directors at Irish radio and at U.S. television networks, where its eponymous hit upped the drama on Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, The Cleaner and others.

Colin was nominated for Best Irish Male at the 2010 Meteor Music Awards and Best Music Video for "The Heart Won't Be Denied" at the IMTV Awards. That year, he also performed at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah.

After several tours with a variety of artists, including R.E.M., Tori Amos, and Sarah McLachlan, The Devlins returned to the stage for a triumphant, sold-out show at the Button Factory in Dublin in September 2011. The band's latest single, "Julian," was released in early 2012.

Currently, Colin Devlin is working on a number of original scoring projects, and has recently completed scores for South American director Sebastian Lopez's The Killing Joke and a science fiction film for L.A.-based filmmaker Pat Hartonian entitled 'Protocol' . A new record is also scheduled for recording in March 2012.
