“Give A Note Foundation is a Nashville non-profit whose sole purpose is strengthening music education opportunities in schools. I’m so grateful for the music educators in my life that nurtured the gift I had so that I can take that path I’ve taken, and not all kids have that,” says Gilfillian, who grew up outside of Philadelphia. “If it wasn’t for Rebuilding Together Nashville, I wouldn’t be in Nashville. I did AmeriCorps and was recruited to work with Rebuilding Together in 2013 and that was why I moved to Nashville. Rebuilding Together is a national non-profit whose main is goal is to provide a healthy living space for people in their home. So many people are stuck in homes that are hazardous or unhealthy to live in, but unfortunately don’t have the resources to change that.”
Black Hole Rainbow also includes the top 10 AAA hit “Unchained” and “Get Out And Get It,” which charted in the top 15. The New York Times said, “Devon Gilfillian, a soul songwriter based in Nashville, made his formidable debut album, ‘Black Hole Rainbow,’ with Shawn Everett…warping vintage sounds toward something deep and strange.” NPR noted, “Equally suited to forlorn blues and the rousing, anthemic roof-raising uplift of ‘Unchained,’ Gilfillian appears poised for – and well-suited to – ubiquity.”
Gilfillian released his debut EP in 2016. The single “Troublemaker” was heard during 2018 NFL Draft programming and advertising. He has played numerous festivals, including Newport Folk and Montreal Jazz. In addition to opening for Grace Potter, he has supported such artists as Mavis Staples, Local Natives, Lauren Daigle, KALEO, Michael McDonald, Chaka Kahn, Keith Urban, Gladys Knight, Brothers Osborne and Michael Franti & Spearhead.
