Since emerging from Akron, Ohio, during the late ‘70s, Devo has become the new-wave icon thanks to their outstanding act. The band not only performs excellent music but also provides audiences with their visual presentation – donning wacky hats and matching jumpsuits. Devo first made it big in 1977 upon releasing their sophomore single, a Rolling Stone cover of “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction.” The song, which made waves in the U.K. and Australia, was featured in their EP, B Stiff.
By 1980, the band finally debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 their massive hit single, “Whip It.” Peaking at number 14, the song was certified gold in the U.S. after garnering plenty of airplay and unit sales. Their third album Freedom of Choice, which spawned the hit song, moved on to become Devo’s best-selling effort of their career. It sold over one million copies and was certified platinum.
Devo fanatics can look forward to a plethora of new and old hits from their diversified setlist. The band’s recent 2023 gigs covered songs as far back as their debut EP to their latest album, Something for Everybody, released in 2010. Recent gigs have delivered staples like “Beautiful World” from New Traditionalists and “Peek-a-Boo” from Oh No! It’s Devo, “Mongoloid" from Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! and more. Of course, a Devo concert will not be complete with unprecedented hits from Freedom of Choice, such as “Whip It,” “Gates of Steel,” and the title track.
Devo’s band members, Mark and Bob Mothersbaugh, Gerald Casale, Josh Freese, and John Hager, have been known to still deliver fantastic productions. Some of them may well be into their ‘70s, but they still perform a high-energy show like it’s 1980! Fans can definitely look forward to a fantastic nostalgic trip when they come and see Devo light up the Paramount Theatre Seattle on Tuesday, 7th November 2023!
