About the Harpist

Raised in Jacksonville, Illinois, Devon's musical training began at a young age with piano and voice lessons.

Even if I already have a booking listed for your date, please contact me, as I am sometimes able to schedule more than one event per day, or can create a custom recording for your wedding ceremony music.

“We just wanted to let you know how much we appreciated your music for the wedding.  There is just nothing that could compare to the sound of a harp in that gorgeous setting, and more importantly, we are so thankful for your professionalism and talent!  My husband doesn’t even have an inch of musical awareness in his body, and he on several occasions brought your name up and commented on how wonderful you played and presented yourself.  God bless you!”
