in 2014 Devilskin were riding high on the back of their highly successful debut album "We Rise". (As featured in Studio Stories Season 1)
But the pressure to follow up such a huge debut was soon to see the band again recruiting Clint Murphy to start the process of the 2nd album and the band set about writing the songs that would soon be brought to life in Modern World Studios in the village of Tetbury in the UK.
The Devils were making inroads into the UK via regular European tours. After sold-out album tour for We Rise and an eight-date 'Summer Surrender' tour in late 2014, Devilskin went offshore to play a series of promotional gigs, where they attracted the attention of international record companies and festival organisers. While in the UK, the band scheduled a pitstop at Modern World with Producer Clint Murphy to record the single Mountains. Following the supporting Mountains and the Moon tour, the band returned to Tetbury to finish fully recording Be Like the River. The album was released on 11 November 2016, and peaked at #1 on the Official New Zealand Music Chart
Be Like The River was to win Best Rock Album at the 2017 NZ Music Awards and a nomination for Best Group. Producer Clint Murphy won Best Engineer for his work on the album.
Be Like The River is the sound of a band hitting their stride, buoyed by the reception of their debut, a seemingly relentless touring schedule and the kind of magical chemistry a band bounded by family will provide. It's a phenomenally well performed and produced 2nd record, an album which solidified Devilskin as major players in the NZ music scene.
