DeVotchKa is a four-piece multi-instrumental and vocal ensemble based in Denver, Colorado. The group fuses Romani, Greek, Slavic, Bolero, and Mariachi music with American punk and folk roots. Their name is derived from Anthony Burgess' Nadsat word for "young girl," which comes from the Russian word (девочка) of the same meaning. The quartet consists of Nick Urata, who sings and plays theremin, guitar, bouzouki, piano, and trumpet; Tom Hagerman, who plays violin, accordion, and piano; Jeanie Schroder, who sings and plays sousaphone and double bass; and Shawn King, who plays percussion and trumpet.
