Gritty, inspired, and oh so authentic, Devora is the master of what she has coined “Outlaw Pop”. She has graced the musical space with a taste of her work on her debut EP, Outlaw: five tracks of Devora’s dream-like western world, inspired by her upbringing in the scorching hot sun of the Arizona desert. The songs meld together raucous and classic American melodies, with more of a modern, dark pop sensibility.
