Kevin Devine has joined Brand New “for the foreseeable future”

He’ll be playing with the band during their current touring.

Kevin Devine has joined Brand New’s live band while they’re on tour in support of new album ‘Science Fiction’.

He’ll be playing with them “for the foreseeable future,” Kevin explains – and it means he’ll be dialing back on his own solo material for a while.

“I’ve been playing music with & around Brand New in various ways for basically our entire careers,” reads his statement. “I love & am proud of them, think they’ve made a(nother) dynamic, special record, and take seriously the opportunity to perform as a part of their band, to help execute their vision & hopefully augment their already plenty-formidable stature. (It’s also really fun.)”

Kevin’s also about to release ‘We Are Who We’ve Always Been’, due 20th October – a record that reimagines recent album ‘Instigator’ with acoustic instrumentation and special guest appearances.
