picture of Teghan Devon

is an award-winning singer-songwriter who writes songs for the same reason that she breathes-- to survive.  “I write so I don’t take my crap out on others.  Sometimes it stops me from punching people in the face.  I am inspired by anything from a speck of dust to a character in a book.”

Teghan's music is a cross-pollination of folk, indie and pop.  According to HoustonMusicReview.com, she "faintly brings back recollections of Edie Brickell's unique and fresh lilt and perspective."  She has been praised for her "honest and clear vocals . . . an artist who doesn't need to hide behind flare to make stellar music" ("Five Modern Singer-Songwriters To Help You Face The Day," EarToTheGroundMusic).

In December 2018, Teghan won multiple awards in the Mid-Atlantic Song Contest, including Young Artist winner and a Silver Award.  Teghan was selected as a New Folk Finalist at the Kerrville Folk Festival in 2018 and 2017.

In July of 2018 Teghan released her first full-length album Fingers Crossed, and she is recording an EP to be released in the Spring of 2019.
