Episode description
We had the pleasure of interviewing Devin Kennedy over Zoom video!
Shot inside of a hot air balloon, “Follow Through” was not only written and produced by Devin, but the video was also directed by him. To put it simply, “Follow Through” is about the sacrifices we all make in the pursuit of our life-long goals and aspirations. Missing birthdays, holidays, important moments, losing touch with old friends and family is, unfortunately, part of the equation for anyone with big ambitions. “Follow Through” showcases Devin’s innate ability to craft deeply personal narratives into catchy melodies. With lyrics created from his own personal experiences; Devin balanced working 40 hours a week after graduating from high school to put himself through Berklee College of Music, while also releasing music independently.
While in college, Devin saved-up his royalties from collaborating with artists like Ben Platt, Ryan Tedder, Andy Grammer, R3HAB, Jake Miller, James Maslow, Alex Aiono (and more), and started investing his profits into cryptocurrencies. This allowed Devin to remain independent by self-funding the release of his debut EP SunDayDreams in the summer of 2021.
Since 2018, Kennedy has been steadily releasing successful singles including, “No Worries” and “Something Bout That Feeling,” which featured a re-mastered sample of his late grandfather on the piano. Devin kicked off 2020 with his high-flying singles “Happy Yet” and “No Parachute,” which received 2 million TikTok page views within two weeks of release.
