Jimmy Deveney and the Hold Fast Union

Jimmy Deveney and the Hold Fast Union is the natural evolution of singer and songwriter Jimmy Deveney's musical journey after moving back to his hometown of Albuquerque. Deveney spent many years touring with various bands based in Austin, TX. Once back in New Mexico, he sought like-minded individuals to explore the boundaries of soul, Americana, and indie rock music. He eventually found drummer/engineer/producer Matthew Tobias and bassist/songwriter Jeff Wilson. Together, they made the 2023 release "High Desert Soul" and solidified the band lineup by adding Ken "Southpaw" Easton on keys and vocals and Charlie Elmore on guitar and vocals. They have been playing shows and working on new material in the studio ever since.

Musically, the band provides catchy, soulful grooves, rich vocal harmonies, and relatable lyrics about the human condition, the good, the bad, and the in-between. They draw on the rich tapestry of American soul music and their individual influences, from indie rock to Americana and punk rock. You can bet you can relate to it and move to it.
