Adventurous yet lyrical, Devlins strong compositional voice unites this group of talented improvisors into a cohesive unit.

Born in Ottawa, Ontario, Claire Devlin began playing piano at the age of five, and by twelve, had taken up the saxophone, studying under Ottawa saxophonist Mike Tremblay.
Throughout high school, Claire was a member of numerous ensembles, including the Nepean All-City Jazz Band, one of Canada's leading youth jazz groups, as well as the Ottawa Junior Jazz Band and Bells Corners Jazz Ensemble. Under the guidance of several outstanding music teachers , namely Mike Tremblay, Jean-François Fauteux, Neil Yorke-Slader, Mandar Gumaste, Yves Laroche, and Shauna MacDonald, she honed her skills in tenor saxophone as her main instrument, as well as alto and soprano sax, clarinet and flute.
In 2012, Claire was selected for the Yamaha All-Star Band as part of MusicFest Canada, performing at the National Arts Centre's Southam Hall with featured guests Chase Sanborn and Campbell Ryga. When she was named the "Rising Young Star" of the Prince Edward County Jazz Festival that same year, she performed with each of the headliners: Emilie-Claire Barlow, Don Thompson, Cannonball Legacy Band, and Boss Brass Reunion Band.
Claire earned her Bachelor of Music (with Distinction) in Jazz Performance from the Schulich School of Music, McGill University, where she studied with saxophonists Chet Doxas, Remi Bolduc, Frank Lozano, and Donny Kennedy, as well as pianist Jean-Michel Pilc.
