About

Devyn Peirsil is a Boston-based singer-songwriter who has developed a curated set of songs from several decades of writing. His songs draw on Celtic folk, classic Broadway, and soul influenced melodies over jazz harmonies, but his song architecture and lyrics have no obvious lineage. Devyn focuses on the craft of lyric writing, an underappreciated discipline today, and deftly addresses themes such as longing, healing, communication, and the tension between human nature and the modern technological world.
