About The Devoted Few
While some people search their whole lives for the elusive ‘it’, the thing that they’d like to spend most of their days doing, Ben Fletcher found ‘it’ in music at the age of 15. During the years that followed he went on to serve an enviable indie rock apprenticeship in Bluebottle Kiss, and he now fronts one of the most exciting bands in town - The Devoted Few.
Two albums (Sleepless, Billboard Noises), a remix EP (Schematic Tracks) and countless national tours has seen The Devoted Few receive accolades and support from Triple J, Rage and Nova, and share the stage with Augie March, Something For Kate, The Fiery Furnaces, The Cloud Room, The Thrills, Sarah Blasko and Eskimo Joe to name a few.
2007 kicked off with a blistering live set, complete with fake blood and nerd glasses, at Sydney’s Big Day Out, then a staggering 22 shows in 28 days with Sarah Blasko. The band then retired to the studio with acclaimed engineers, Anton Hagop & Scott Horscroft to record their much anticipated new album. It was then off to Nashville, Tennessee for mixing with Jacquire King (Modest Mouse, Kings Of Leon, Tom Waits). The result is Baby, You’re A Vampire, THE record for The Devoted Few. Stay tuned for release details.
The Devoted Few are Ben Fletcher, Skye Knight, Richard Coneliano, Barry Adamson, Dave Hunt and Adam ‘Wesley’ Gregorace.
