Experience New Wave Legends Live with TicketPurchase.com

Performer Information

Few bands in music history have left as indelible a mark on new wave as Devo. Formed in 1973 in Akron, Ohio by founding members Mark Mothersbaugh, Gerald Casale, Bob Mothersbaugh, and Bob Casale, Devo fused art-school concepts with futuristic pop. Early acclaim arrived with their Brian Eno–produced debut and exploded into the mainstream with “Whip It,” propelling the band to over 2 million albums sold worldwide. Their bestseller, Freedom of Choice (1980), earned Gold certification in the U.S. with more than 500,000 copies sold. Fans still flock to every Devo tour to experience their razor-sharp performance art and pioneering sound.

Devo’s influence is everywhere—on alternative rock, synth-pop, and the entire visual language of music videos. They’ve earned a Grammy nomination, multiple MTV Video Music Award nods, and repeated Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominations. Their blend of angular guitars, quirky synths, and satirical, deadpan delivery reshaped the boundaries of pop culture and inspired generations of artists.

Current Band Members

• Mark Mothersbaugh — vocals, keyboards, guitar

A founding member and key songwriter, Mark has anchored Devo’s sound from the start and later became a prolific film and TV composer. His melodic synth lines and inventive textures are core to the band’s identity.

• Gerald Casale — vocals, bass guitar, keyboards

A founding member and co-creator of the “de-evolution” concept, Gerald’s lyrics and direction shaped Devo’s sharp social commentary. He also directed many of their influential music videos.

• Bob Mothersbaugh — guitar, vocals

A founding member whose distinctive guitar style helped define Devo’s off-kilter hooks and rhythmic punch. His backing vocals and riffs are central to the band’s classic sound.

• Josh Freese — drums

Joining in 1996, the renowned session drummer powers Devo’s precise, high-energy shows. He’s also known for work with Nine Inch Nails, A Perfect Circle, and The Vandals.

Former and Legacy Members

• Bob Casale — guitar, keyboards, vocals (1973–2014)

A founding member integral to Devo’s production and sound across their classic albums.

• Alan Myers — drums (1976–1986)

Nicknamed “the human metronome,” his pinpoint drumming defined Devo’s classic era.

• Jim Mothersbaugh — drums (1973–1976)

An early member who contributed electronic drums in the band’s formative years.

Devo’s catalog brims with cult classics and anthems: the Eno-produced debut Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! (1978), Freedom of Choice (1980), New Traditionalists (1981), and the fan-favorite comeback Something for Everybody (2010). Setlists often feature “Whip It,” “Girl U Want,” “Beautiful World,” “Mongoloid,” “Jocko Homo,” and “Freedom of Choice.”

On stage, Devo deliver conceptual theater—yellow suits, energy dome hats, synchronized movement, and razor-edged visuals that turn satire into spectacle. A Devo concert hums with robotic rhythms, multimedia art, and audience participation, creating an unforgettable, high-voltage experience.
