Welcome to this little peice of Nowhere. Devinion is my musical ambition, some of which come to life, while others, find thier way to an old cassette storage drawer. They are songs that I basicaly always wanted to hear, and since no one else was writing them, I thought, "what the hell, why not". and if anyone else likes this music, then that is great. So take a listen, drop me an e-mail, tell me what you think, good/bad/indifferent/other. I Thank You For Stopping By.
Band/artist history
Devinion (as of October 2003) Thomas Creegan- Vocals/Guitars/Bass/Keyboards Before Devinion- Some of the songs were written as bits and pieces as far back as 1991.Little things recorded with an old Panosonic tape recorder. 1993/1994-A song I wrote called "Death", was recorded on a 2 track machine with my friend Chris Refano playing keyboards, and I playing guitar/singing. April 1995- Enter John Scarpelli. A mutual friend gave John a copy of the above song, "Death", and John wanted to put a drum track to it, When he called me a few days later, he asked if he could join my band. We met up at Moravian with acoustic guitars, and I showed him some stuff I was working on, as did he for me. During the next few months we just met up and practiced, on, and on. November 1995- We record the song "Rose Petals" with a "financial donation" from Roy M. Greaux of www.form-media.com at a studio in Manhatten, but, it really didn't turn out so good, so it was scratched. January-September 1996- We go to Belome Studios on Staten Island, with owner/engineer Tom Devito and re-record "Rose Petals" which turned out awesome, along with the other songs that become the Devinion cd "Suicides Little Angel" "Rose Petals", "The Garden Of Bleeding", "Julia's Sleep", "Lullabye", "The Harbinger", "Dream's Nightmare (an ending of sorts)" November 1996- John leaves the band. January 1997- The cd is done. Produced by Thomas Creegan Mixed By Thomas Creegan/Tom Devito Summer 1997- WSIA-88.9 college radio show "Local Yocals" play "Rose Petals" and "The Harbinger" on thier Sunday Broadcast. 1998-2003- Writing and demoing various songs, with various people, with the hopes of doing a new cd or two. And the future of this is lookin brighter and brighter...
