Experimental R&b
Upcoming Devonté Hynes Tour
A shape-shifting, multifaceted singer/songwriter, composer, actor, author, and producer, London born polymath Devonté Hynes has recorded under his own name and with the combustible chillwave outfit Test Icicles, as well as under the pseudonyms Lightspeed Champion (rootsy, psych-tinged dream pop) and Blood Orange (atmospheric and cinematic electro-R&B). Hynes has also written songs for artists as diverse as Florence + the Machine, A$AP Rocky, Mariah Carey and Solange; served as a fashion consultant for Jay-Z's Rocawear; and collaborated with Nedelle Torrisi, Sky Ferreira, Foals, and Britney Spears. In 2013 Hynes provided the original score for director Gia Coppola's evocative coming-of-age film Palo Alto, and most recently scored the debut feature by Melina Matsoukas, Queen & Slim. ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi
