Devendra Banhart official bio:
Devendra Banhart (b. 1980, Houston, Texas) lives and works in Los Angeles. An internationally renowned musician considered a pioneer of the “freak folk” and “New Weird America” movements, Banhart has toured, performed, and collaborated with Vashti Bunyan, Yoko Ono, Os Mutantes, the Swans, ANOHNI, Caetano Veloso, and Beck, amongst many others. His musical work has always existed symbiotically alongside his pursuits in the other fine arts.
Music was always a passion for Banhart, and he discovered it in ways both magical and haphazard. As a boy in Caracas, says Banhart, “I was surrounded by salsa, merengue, cumbia, some bossa nova—that was ubiquitous, you’d hear it on any street.” In high school, Banhart became obsessed with rocksteady, bluebeat, and ska, which he’d learned about via skateboarding videos. Finishing high school, he thought he would pursue a visual arts career so he enrolled at the San Francisco Art Institute, but he soon dropped out in favor of exploring music. He has, however, successfully maintained a parallel career as a visual artist: Banhart’s distinctive, minutely inked, often enigmatic drawings have appeared in galleries all over the world, including the Art Basel Contemporary Art Fair in Miami; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Brussels; and Los Angeles’ Museum of Contemporary Art and Nicodim Gallery.
For Banhart, his career remains “an adventure and an exploration.” Banhart admits, “I don’t really take care of my voice, but, just like with playing guitar, you get more familiar with it, and you get better at it. I’ve always said that I’m very good at not knowing how to play the guitar but, really, it’s just that I’m very comfortable with the utter uncertainty of my approach.”

Golden Girls lyrics:
You believe in visions and prayers
But you don't believe in what's really there
You're a young man on the dance floor
A young man in a young man's world
Get on the dance floor
Get on the dance floor
Get on the dance floor
Get on the dance floor
Get on the dance floor
Get on the dance floor
Get on the dance floor
Get on the dance floor
Get on the dance floor
Get on the dance floor
Get on the dance floor

Never Seen Such Good Things lyrics:
Never seen such good things go so wrong
And everywhere we turn they're playing our song
I should have known someone so much like me
Would give me hell and send me to my knees
Love you're a strange fella
Sure leave your mark indelibly
Love you're a strange fella
Won't you leave your mark on me
If we ever make sweet love again
I'm sure that it will be quite disgusting
Race to the end, race to the end
The memory of a ceremony so
Empty, bitter, boring, and hollow
Hollow
But love, you're a strange fella
Sure leave your mark indelibly
May as well be forever
Love, won't you come and punish me?
Sad lady you win
Sad lady you win
Sad lady you win
Sad lady you win
Sad lady you win
Sad lady you win
Sad lady you win
Sad lady you win
