As an electric string quartet, or any sort of electric instrumentalist, you're kind of at the mercy of your patchcord when it comes to performing and jumping up and down on stage. You are tethered to your amp, not unlike your dog is to a fence when you jump into Starbucks for a quick fix. There's a limit on what you can do.
We're super excited to test out wireless patchcords for our Ottawa show! It'll be deVah unleashed!!!
We're working on additional choreography to express our music better. Come check out the results!

POGO Gala Part I
We were thrilled to play at the POGO Gala www.pogo.ca/gala this past weekend at the beautiful Liberty Grand. It was one of the first times when the client specified three separate looks for us, and definitely the first time any of us had ever been asked to look 'mannish.'
We'll get you picks of the mannish photos soon, but for now, here we are in our final look of the night: White dresses with electric instruments.
This is backstage before we went on- more photos to follow!
Busy Busy!
What a busy few weeks it has been!
We put down five tracks last week, and Moira, in her last minute decision to stay the night in Toronto, realized her part for one of our tracks was in her home out in the suburbs! Can you count the number of pages??

"Plain," our first original we performed!!
This fab little tune is by our very own Liza, who is the composer of the group :)
This is the ending- we're super stoked to perform it at the POGO gala (they specifically requested this!) in a couple of weeks.

Some of our songs have lead-ins from other songs. We're pretty pleased with this one!

Hello!
Welcome to the daily deVah!
The past year has been full of so much excitements!
This is Sharon blogging, and I'll be the main blogger. If you notice a change in writing style, it might be someone else writing, or I may have decided to pick up a book and inevitably absorbed that author's writing style. These things happen.
So, deVah, yeah.
We're Canada's only Yamaha-sponsored string quartet. I think that's pretty cool.
Here's the image that is likely in the works of becoming a Yamaha poster:
And our first tour is in its infant planning stages! Are you a venue-owner/operator in Ontario/Quebec/Manitoba? Please contact us!!
