Bio Kareem Devlin is a young singer-songwriter from New York City. This 27-year-old's first musical influence was his mother and soul singer Christian Cooper. When he was just 15, Kareem was signed with his first band to Warner Brothers Records. After the breakup of his band, Devlin went on to play guitar, produce, and co-write with numerous recording artists in the music meccas of New York, Los Angeles and Nashville. During the time that he spent making music around the country, Devlin says that he was influenced by all the musical styles and cultures that he came across in his travels. Eventually Devlin decided to head back home to New York and focus on making his mark as a solo artist. He independently released his solo debut EP, Contact, earlier this year. Since the release of Contact, he is quickly becoming an underground Internet favorite.
