DEVILSKIN are a phenomenon in their native New Zealand, their Platinum selling debut album We Rise entered the NZ national album charts at Number 1 and stayed in the top 40 for over 54 weeks! The band exploded onto the NZ rock scene with the infectious Little Pills and Never See The Light singles and was followed by the Number 1 airplay song Start A Revolution. WE RISE was released on July 11, 2014 and went straight to the top of the charts remaining as the #1 Album and #1 Kiwi Artist Album for 3 weeks and achieving Gold sales after only 2 weeks. The album was certified PLATINUM in February 2015. In November 2014 the band released Live At The Powerstation dvd/cd which captured the band at the end of the We Rise tour slaying a sold out Powerstation crowd in Auckland. Devilskin replicated their debut album success by debuting their second studio album BE LIKE THE RIVER at Number 1 on the New Zealand Album charts. BLTRhas subsequently achieved GOLD sales certification. Supporting American rock legends, DISTURBED and playing in front of an 11,000 sold out crowd at Vector Arena DEVILSKIN celebrated their new album chart success on the 18th November 2016. This performance kicked off a heavy touring schedule in support of the album release. Grammy Award winning band HALESTORM flew into New Zealand to support DEVILSKIN. The tour kicked off with a truly memorable New Years Eve gig overlooking Earthquake damaged Christchurch Cathedral in a festival style open air gig. The tour continued with 7 gigs in NZ and 3 in Australia. During 2017 Devilskin completed two tours throughout the UK and Europe which included their debut festival appearance at the legendary DOWNLOAD UK festival. 2018 they were invited by great friends Halestorm for an 18 date European tour playing to sold out gigs every night, which was quickly followed by their own 10 date headline tour through the UK. 2019 got off to a flying start with invitations from SLASH to be sole support for his Australasian Arena tour followed by appearances at Download Sydney & Download Melbourne and our own HOMEGROWN Festival in Wellington. Devilskin have earned a formidable reputation by earnestly demonstrating commitment to unpretentious musical values, writing songs that have depth and passion, and a relentless touring schedule. Their tactical instrumental attack is balanced by the seductive Jennie Skulander and her incredible voice that sweeps from whisper to roar, rips with power, drips with melody and captivates with sincerity.
