NEW YORK--()--DEV will drop her anxiously awaited debut full-length, THE NIGHT THE SUN CAME UP on September 20, 2011 in stores everywhere and online.
“'In the Dark' is straight fire. Immediate reaction when played at the clubs and on air. Huge record for us!”
Her sly, sexy and chic electro pop sound has already stirred up a flurry of anticipation for the record. Breakout single "Bass Down Low" produced by cohorts THE CATARACS recently exceeded GOLD status, establishing the Los Angeles-based songstress as a daring and diverse 21st century diva.
The album also features current hit single "In The Dark", another kinetic and catchy anthem with an unforgettable hook. The song takes the template that DEV and THE CATARACS built on The Far East Movement's multi-platinum smash, "Like A G6", to another level.
Radio has already responded to "In The Dark" with uncontainable fervor. E-Man APD/MD of Power 106 in Los Angeles says, "'In the Dark' is straight fire. Immediate reaction when played at the clubs and on air. Huge record for us!" You can catch the music video on June 24, 2011 when it debuts. In the meantime, the remix of "Bass Down Low" featuring Tinie Tempah hit the Top 10 on the UK iTunes chart.
After working with A-list luminaries such as Timbaland, Travis Barker, and David Guetta on their own projects, DEV has remained loyal to the already-successful-formula she has created with THE CATARACS for all songs on THE NIGHT THE SUN CAME UP.
DEV has also been lauded with numerous prestigious accolades including an ASCAP 2011 Pop Award for "Like A G6" and Best Rap/Hip Hop Dance Track at the 26th annual International Dance Music Awards, while mtvU nominated her for Best New Artist. Perez Hilton applauds her exclaiming, "[Sounds like] Ibiza meets the streets", and The Hollywood Reporter calls her, "[The] next golden club girl"!
There's nothing quite like experiencing these songs live though, and she brings a fresh fire every time she hits the stage. Hot off a highly successful run with THE CATARACS supporting Usher in arenas across the United States, DEV is primed for pop supremacy.
Set a reminder to be ready for THE NIGHT THE SUN CAME UP because pop music may never be the same.
