Showcasing her own acoustic genre-blending sound, Borders musician Devin Casson has hit the Scottish live music scene with dynamic sets of self penned originals. From her start as an up-and-coming artist playing at Mac Arts ‘Incubator Sessions’, Devin is an alumna of the ‘Hit the Road Dec 2023’ tour and winner of Martin Guitar x Guitarguitar ‘Unleash the Artist 2024’ songwriting competition.

 

Over the last few years, Devin has played support to various touring musicians, including picking up the main support slot on a national run of shows with legendary Scottish band Del Amitri. She has also taken to the stage opening for the likes of Tom Clarke (The Enemy), Cammy Barnes and Brooke Combe at venues across the country.

 

In 2024, Devin began collaborating with Haiver (featuring Billy Kennedy of Frightened Rabbit), co-writing and featuring on their debut single "Better". The track received its first spin on BBC Introducing Scotland, where Devin was praised as having "one of Scotland’s most interesting new rock voices". The release marked a turning point in her career, sparking growing industry attention and a steadily building fanbase.
