Bob DeVos  

Guitarist-Composer-Clinician

"Shifting Sands" (Savant Records) was 28 weeks in the top twenty national air plays  on JazzWeek.com's Top 50 On-Air Chart and on many Top Releases of 2006 lists, most notably Zan Stewart's 10 Best Jazz CDs of 2006 and WBGO's winter Plays of the Month.

Rick Holland: "Bob DeVos has released a gem, a wonderful disc.  DeVos, a very modernistic and forward Jazz guitarist, demonstrates his expertise with the B-3 organ trio in this swinging and modern take on the genre. Very hip! Thumbs way up!"  

Jazz Radio 247 Spring 2007

Reviews

 

"soulful lyricism, swift & swinging improvisations, sensuous, insinuating, .."Wes Is More", the DeVos-penned tribute to Montgomery, provides a smoking, riffing blues coda." Mike Joyce, JazzTimes, March 2008
