Interview with Kevin Devine

Even after all these years, he still stands true.

“AM: Definitely. I feel like the bigger picture gets lost in your music to people who aren’t as focused, because “viewing humanity” seems to be the bigger picture around your songs and just your music in general.

“

KD: I think it’s cool that you think that, because that’s what I think, too.

AM: Do you feel like that message gets lost?

KD: Yeah. I don’t think it’s political to say that some people get fucked. I don’t think it’s political to say that the actions of The First World directly affect the way the people in The Third World live their lives. Just like I don’t think it’s political to talk about Global Warming. To me, it’s not a fucking political issue that by 2050 there won’t be an Antarctica. That’s not politics, that’s science and reading. I just think we’ve made things political that are not political.

Things like how the world works and that there’s enough money to build golf courses everywhere, but kids in Africa don’t have fucking blankets, and they have AIDS, and they don’t have food. I don’t think that there are political solutions to that.
It’s just looking at the situation and being like, “That’s fucking crazy.” That, to me, is what [my music] is about.

The biggest privileges I’ve had in making music— and not to sound in anyway pontificating, or anything like that— I’ve talked to soldiers– who I would expect would want to beat me up in the bathroom of the club– and come up to me and tell me that those songs have meant a lot to them, whether they vote Republican or Democrat. I really hope that answers your question and I don’t sound like an asshole.”

“I know my brother, he went one way. And at the fork I heard him say, “Don’t you follow. Don’t go making my mistakes.” And I realize what he meant. Don’t kill yourself to raise the dead. It never works. You’ll only end up joining them.” #kevindevine

My new baby. #DanElectro (Taken with instagram)

Over the years, I’ve realized that this girl is my everything. She’s my best friend and love of my life all in one. When you have something this good, never let go of it and fight like hell for it because you’re lucky to have it. People spend their entire lives looking for something this great. She has been right in front of me, for nearly three years. Patiently waiting. Now, I know. I’m not going anywhere. I love you, @natashastoked (Taken with instagram)

Thank you @ratcharles for taking this adorable picture of @natashastoked and myself. 😍💋 (Taken with instagram)
