New music from Devon Michael Sedrick: Fifty One Fifty
Confronting his inner darkness on his debut album.
Singer-songwriter Devon Michael Sedrick has released his debut album, Fifty One Fifty.
Written and produced entirely by Sedrick, the album blends rock, R&B, and global percussive influences.
The title of the album references the California police code for an involuntary 72-hour psychiatric hold, a metaphor Devon uses for confronting the darkest parts of himself.
“The song ‘Fifty One Fifty’ is about me ‘fifty-one-fiftying’ myself...” explains Sedrick. “It’s the moment I realised I wasn’t proud of my actions, and I had to face and change the parts of myself I was finally ready to confront.”
Although the record explores heavy themes like anxiety, heartbreak, and even suicidal ideation, it ultimately carries a message of healing.
“It’s about returning to a place of wholeness...” confirms Sedrick. “We all have dark sides, and I want people to look at those parts of themselves without shame, and with the courage to make conscious shifts.”
Devon is bringing Fifty One Fifty to the stage with his first solo tour.
“I am so overwhelmed by the support of my bandmates and their love for the music...” says Sedrick. “I have to pinch myself daily. I cannot wait to play and meet as many people as possible.”
