New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Rising pop artist May Devun releases new single "All That I Want." With the sounds of heavy electric guitar quickly followed by a light trill May Devun begins the song. There are many successive moments of no music, all quickly followed by a burst of sound creating a powerful impact of music under May's intense opening verse. She sets the scene when she sings out, "The simplest words that you could say / Echo like a song in my mind." The music stays intricate yet light and fun while May sings lyrics like "My heart is captive" and "You melt my soul." She can't get enough for this person as she begs "Won't you please make a move?" When talking about May Devun, record producer Leland Elliott (Needtobreathe, Yelawolf,
Darius Rucker, Orianthi, Alabama, Lionel Richie, Rascal Flatts), of Scorched Earth Productions gushed over her impeccable artistic abilities. He stated "It is very rare to come across an artist like May Devun. Not many are willing to put in the time and dedication to master their craft as she has.
