Inside Out Music

Devin Townsend, born on May 5th 1972 in Vancouver, Canada, is a multi-instrumentalist and producer. He gained recognition at the age of 19 when he joined Steve Vai's band as the vocalist for the "Sex & Religion" album and subsequent world tour. Since then, Devin has embarked on various projects that showcase his diverse creativity. Notable among these are Strapping Young Lad (a speed/industrial metal band) and Devin Townsend/the Devin Townsend Band/Devin Townsend Project.

Under the name Devin Townsend, he released four studio albums (Ocean Machine Biomech, Infinity, Physicist, and Terria), one live album (Official Bootleg), and three side albums (Devlab, The Hummer, and Ziltoid The Omniscient). Later forming The Devin Townsend Band with a stable lineup of backing musicians, they released two albums (Accelerated Evolution and Synchestra).

In 2009-2011, Devin introduced a new band name - Devin Townsend Project - which marked the beginning of a four-album cycle consisting of Ki, Addicted!, Deconstruction,and Ghost. Following this phase with four more albums (Epicloud,Z2/Dark Matters,Sky Blue,and Transcendence), he announced in 2018 that he would be dropping the Devin Townsend Project band name. In 2019's release Empathhe returned to using his own name as the band

After an exceptionally long year full of personal change and near manic levels of creative activity, Canadian musician Devin Townsend releases his follow up to 2019’s acclaimed Empath album. Assembled from a barrage of material written during the pandemic Lightwork represents a new level,and has ended up being one of the most accessible, yet ambitious releases of his storied career. A project that has been on Devin’s mind since he was a teen, (and flirted with throughout his career) is a more melodic and direct album with a great producer to help guide the work. Enter Garth Richardson: A Vancouver based producer with a long resume and a friend of Devin’s for many years. And the goal? To provide something beautiful, cathartic, powerful and clear. A sense of optimism and power through what can be commonly known as a ‘depressing period’. Its about strength, love, acceptance, fear, and overcoming together. Guests on the record include friends and stalwarts from his past (Anneke Van Giersbergen, Ché Aimee Dorval, Morgan Agren, Mike Keneally, Steve Vai, Elektra Women’s Choir) as well as some newer friends and faces (Darby Todd, Diego Tejeida, Nathan Navarro, Federico Paulovich, Jonas Hellborg).
