FRIENDS! For the remainder of 2017, I will be laying low and preparing for several exciting TBA items in 2018. In the mean time, I just wanted to send out a #BIGthankyou. 2017 was a pivotal year for me personally and professionally and I am so thankful for all the wonderful souls, music makers, party shakers, day trippers and night mixers who I had the pleasure of meeting along the way! #48shows in 8 months and only 3 were in my hometown; that's a lot of #hospitality for which I am supremely thankful. #Music is everything to me; #thankyou so much for #listening and giving me a platform upon which to share my #passion. I hope you who are reading this know how much I #love you all and #appreciate your continued support. Wishing everyone much #peace and #love and quiet #introspection over the next few months. See you in #2018 . xx-Elizabeth🙏🏼✌🏼🙌🏼🎼 #elizabethdevlinmusic #elizabethdevlin #thankyousomuch #manythanks #danka #merci #gracias #autoharpmusicrocks #autoharpmusic #autoharp #autoheart #gratitude #gratefulheart

"Je veux encore rouler des hanches, Je veux me saouler de printemps, Je veux m'en payer des nuits blanches, A cœur qui bat, à cœur battant. Avant que sonne l'heure blême Et jusqu'à mon souffle dernier, Je veux encore dire "je t'aime" Et vouloir mourir d'aimer." #barbara #favorite #french #singers #imissyou #redpianos #walkinghome #music #breaks #myheart (at Paris, France)

The #commuterbus taking me to #Paris is a #mercedesbenz. #indie #musician #baller here; #HUZZAH! #Basel was insanely good. The show at #CarambolageBar was perfect as were our hosts! Special thanks to Joel, Julia and Liam for dinner and hospitality🙏🏼. The after party was off the hook, an outdoor, underground protest #rave where @boohoomusic and I danced the night away under the highway by the old train tracks. Taking a few days off now to visit friends in Paris; next show Sept 21 at Les Bal des Fringants, #Lyon #France. xx-E . .
