Her music, steeped in the traditions of rock but infused with a modern sensibility, strikes a chord with those yearning for music that’s real, unprocessed, and unapologetically loud. Devon performance was a statement – a declaration of the enduring power of rock music. For those of us who crave the raw, unfiltered essence of live rock, Thompson is a revelation.
