The Devil Makes Three formed in Santa Cruz and remain there to this date, their acoustic style is often described as Americana and blends various genres including bluegrass, country, folk and blues. They self released an eponymous album in 2002 but due lack of fan base or market, the album failed to chart. It did receive a re-release in 2007 after the band had taken time to tour and promote their music and it entered the US Grass charts at #7. They had recently signed with record label Milan who had seen their live album 'A Little Bit Faster and a Little Bit Worse' which impressed them so it was through their help that the debut achieved the chart position.
The next album 'Do Right Wrong' came in April 2009 and remains the band's highest chart position to date as it entered at #1 on the US Grass chart. In 2010 the band parted for a short time as Pete and Lucia relocated to their native Vermont while Cooper stayed in California, around the same time Cooper split from his current partner. A live album came in 2011 which debuted at #4 on the Grass chart, this was followed by the band's fourth original release 'I'm A Stranger Here' in 2013.
The fourth album peaked at #2 on the Grass chart and the US Heatseekers chart, their first appearance on the latter. It also appeared on the Indie and Folk chart, another first for the band. The band has toured across the world to promote this release and have appeared at numerous folk festivals.
When you watch The Devil Makes Three perform you can't help but feel happy and content. The music itself is upbeat and soothing and it makes you just want to listen and form your own impression of the music.
The venue itself is of an open stage in which the performers themselves stand extremely close to the edge and extremely close to one another. In this way they create a more welcoming and inviting atmosphere and one in which you don't feel uneasy about joining in.
During the performance the audience quietly listens and waits until the band is done performing a song before they clap and cheer loudly. This in a way shows how deep the lyrics are and how much these same lyrics make people think about their own thoughts and feelings during a live performance.
The Devil Makes Three is a band that doesn't move around a lot on stage, but they do dance in place and show that they are into the performance, but more then that it shows that they are more focused on how the song sounds and their execution rather then drawing to much attention to themselves. In between each song they try their best to interact with the audience and tell a little bit about themselves and what happened on their way to each performance helping to drive a deeper connection between them and the fans that came to see them. In performing their song "The Bullet" you can see just how much each song means to them and how important it is to them and that in itself makes me want to see them live.
Too often you see artist just write songs that they know will sell, but in the case of the The Devil Makes Three you don't see that at all and what you get with each song is lyrics that really reflect the thoughts and feelings of the artist themselves.
