Devo, legendary pioneers of new wave and punk rock are bringing their iconic sound and boundary-pushing vision to a new generation.
DEVO plays Borgata Casino Atlantic City on June 12, 2026.
Devo has made it clear that they are not musicians but artists making music who push against societal norms. By incorporating characters and costumes, they have stood out from the usual artists that perform live shows.
Back in Aug 2007, Gerry Casale of DEVO wondered into Gypsy Bar at the Borgata and played a few songs w/ LeCompt.
Essential Devo Hits
These tracks are the foundation of Devo’s legacy and are featured on almost every major compilation:
Whip It: Their signature 1980 hit known for its iconic riff and surreal music video.
Jocko Homo: The band’s unofficial anthem that introduced the concept of “de-evolution”.
(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction: A “robotic” and highly influential cover of the Rolling Stones classic, personally approved by Mick Jagger.
Girl U Want: A catchy, riff-driven track from the Freedom of Choice album.
Freedom of Choice: A sarcastic yet high-energy track about the nature of decision-making.
Beautiful World: A seemingly optimistic song that actually offers a biting critique of society.
Working in a Coal Mine: A unique cover of the Allen Toussaint song that became a staple for the band.
