The is the Outstanding Records MySpace site for David Devant & His Spirit Wife, one of the UKs most acclaimed live acts.
COMING SOON:
Outstanding is delighted to announce the release of THE LOST WORLD OF DAVID DEVANT & HIS SPIRIT WIFE a brand new collection of extremely rare, unreleased or alternative versions from the catalogue of Devant. The album, which comes in two volumes, will be available from 26 June 2006 for digital download only through all major online content providers: iTunes, MusicMatch etc.
Due to legendary levels of disorganisation, the exact year of the bands formation is unknown even to them. Their first concert some time in the early nineties, conducted in the future bass players front room, is still talked of in tones of awe and wonder. LOVE US UNCONDITIONALLY demanded a placard held aloft from the stage and its seems these words had a power so great that ever since then the band have been lost in the white hot energy of this infinite feedback loop of love. Never having planned to be good by their third album, the band took on the mantle of pop icons from the start. Some bands dream of being fired from a canon, this bands singer really was.
Like the bastard child of Bowie, Roxy Music and cult TV series The Prisoner, David Devant & His Spirit Wife have the vision, the style and the originality to show you a better life. And it's all done by kindness.
