Encore: Devon Gilfillian joins host Raina Douris

Devon Gilfillian has come a long way since his days as a college bar act, playing covers by all sorts of artists, including Grace Potter. Five years later, Devon just wrapped up a tour with her – And he released his debut album. Black Hole Rainbow mixes his old-school influences like Al Green and Jimi Hendrix with Afrobeat, inspired by a recent trip to Johannesburg. We’ll hear some of those songs performed live today, and Devon shares about relocating to Nashville and falling in love with country music.
