2021

Born in California just outside of Fresno, then moving to Kentucky around the age of 13, the independent Christian Rock artist Devin Williams grew to love various genres of music. Growing up in a household filled with musicians, Devin was captivated by music and entertainment at an early age. As a kid, Devin admired old school favorites like Ray Charles, Elvis, Michael Jackson, Willie Nelson, and Kenny Rogers. Although you will find fingerprint influences from bands like Soundgarden, Papa Roach, Shinedown, Breaking Benjamin, and Skillet in his music, Devin has forged his own distinctive Modern Rock sound.  

Forming a cover band at only 15-years old, they played several hometown gigs and loved every minute of it. As Devin began listening more intently to how artists write their songs, he began to understand how they told stories through musical lyrics. Studying music performance in Florida during his college years, Devin put together a rock band and played concerts all over central Florida, and then eventually made the move to Music City.  

Devin is a seven-time BillboardTop 30 Christian Rock artist and is releasing his latest single “Every Eye” Friday, March 19, 2021. As a singer-songwriter, producer, and worship leader, Devin’s passion is to truly connect personal stories and inspirations through his music. On the BillboardChristian Rock charts, he has previously charted the following singles; Destruction of Kings (#15), Like A Fire (#16), I Will Overcome (#18), Eraser (#23), Feel You Falling (#24), Here for You (#27), and Save Me (#30). 

Serving as a worship leader at local churches in the Nashville area, Devin pursued God’s call on his life and sought to spread the message of love and Grace. Devin strives to be a role model for his community and the husband and father of three boys has shared his powerful music with Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt via the Ryan Seacrest Foundation’s Seacrest Studios.  

Throughout his career, he has shared the stage with popular Christian artists For King and Country, Tenth Avenue North, and Building 429, to name a few. Chart-topping Christian acts like Third Day have been praising Devin’s faith and his power to deliver God’s message through his music. Mac Powell of Third Day states that he is not only impressed by his music, but by his desire to spread the message of God’s love and mercy given to us. “You won’t be disappointed! I believe God has something special for this guy,” says Powell. Contemporary Christian solo artist, songwriter, and worship leader, Jeff Deyo of SonicFlood shares, “His voice is amazing, his talent is very evident and his heart and commitment to seeing God work through him is steadfast and contagious”.  

Serving as a mentor for all to serve God and the community in a positive light, Devin impacts audiences worldwide and has helped plant churches locally. Becoming an Italian citizen through his grandfather, Devin had five tours in Italy, traveling from the country’s Northern city Torino, down through Rome, all the way to the Southern city of Siracusa in Sicily. Conveying the message of his song “Here For You” Devin translated the lyrics into Italian and recorded a new version with a music video.  Locally, he has played at top venues around Music City like the Exit/In, 3rd and Lindsley, Mercy Lounge, The End, and 12th and Porter, Devin continues to make waves as a Chart-topping Christian musician.
