Guitarist for The Matches, Jonathan Devoto, has started his own side project and debuted his solo acoustic act on May 17th, 2009 in Berkeley, CA. Devoto’s project is in its very early stages as he’s still looking for musicians to back him. Until that happens, he’ll be playing more acoustic shows in Northern California.
His next [...]
