– Press Release

DEVO, the iconic ’80s band, has partnered with Disney Sound to bring their hits to a new generation with ‘DEVO 2.0,’ a combination CD/DVD package that was recently released. The original members of DEVO rerecorded ten songs (some with revamped lyrics) and two brand new ones with DEVO 2.0, a group of five talented kids aged 10-14.

“The concept is about the energy and aesthetic of DEVO being passed like an Olympic torch to a new generation,” said DEVO frontman Gerald V. Casale, who directed all 9 newly created music videos on the DVD. The platinum-selling band handpicked kids Nicole, Jackie, Nathan, Michael and Kane to don the famous “energy domes” and become DEVO 2.0. Unlike the original DEVO, DEVO 2.0 is a co-ed affair, with lead singer Nicole and keyboardist Jackie lending diversity to the DEVO chemistry. “I’m honored to be the new Mark Mothersbaugh!” declared Nicole.
