Devon Gilfillian’s Funky Take on Nashville

Devon Gilfillian has been putting his own spin on Americana music since moving to Nashville from Philadelphia back in 2013. He pushes the boundaries even further on his forthcoming album Time Will Tell, which he recorded at historic RCA Studio A on Music Row. But, Gilfillian says, this is far from a Music Row-type album. During his visit to the Nashville Now cabin, the singer-guitarist talks about sidestepping the system as an indie artist, how Sturgill Simpson’s Metamodern Sounds in Country Music influenced his career, and why things have or haven’t changed for Black artists making their art in Music City. Get to know one of American roots music’s most dynamic voices on this episode of Rolling Stone’s all-things-Nashville podcast.   Country is Here…Nashville is Now.   Check out our Hear Now playlist on Spotify, updated weekly.
