For a guy who loves to travel around playing music, Devon
seems to have it made: he’s the bass player for the surging
folk-punk band “North By Choice.” After years of grinding
away, they’re finally starting to get their due, playing to bigger
audiences in new places. When the band hits the big city lights
of Berlin after their craziest gig yet, Devon knows he’s living
the dream. That is, until things collapse into an agonizing
morning after, when Devon begins to question everything.
The Musician’s Compass: A 12-Step Programme is a hilarious,
provocative look at life on the road, an adventure littered with
addiction and depression, punctuated by triumph and hope.
Will Devon survive the ride?

lyrics
Caress of Steel Wheels
Get in the van
Stick with the plan
6 hours to go
Somewhere I don’t know
A new countryside
Another long drive
Leaves of yellow and gold
Speckle the wet road
Big wheels
Keep on turning
Over me
Under me
Waking up early feeling heavy in the eyes
Feels like a demise, the AM I’d always despised
But in turn I’m making amends for my previous mistakes
Was it real?
Was it fake?
I simply do what it takes.
Drinking myself with a heavy demeanour
Darkness recedes a secret retriever believer
But when it’s time i can switch up the gears
No need to fear
Touring van
And my homies are here
