Genre Defiers with an Orchestra

Standing at the surprising crossroads of indie rock and Eastern European folk music, DeVotchKa's unique blend of DIY punk, traditional dance music, norteno, burlesque and vintage cinema sounds first came to international attention when they received a Grammy nomination for their soundtrack to the 2006 Oscar-winning indie flick Little Miss Sunshine. Catch them performing with the grandeur of the Colorado Symphony Orchestra this fall!

Textured orchestral arrangements, percussive synths and a not sticking to genre are DeVotchKa's hallmarks. Whether backed by a full orchestra or performing in more intimate settings, they produce a live sound that's passionate and relatable thanks to frontman Nick Urata's gravel-edged, heartbreaking croon and candid lyrics laden with personal stories and emotional depth.
