Devil's Halo

Devil's Halo is the eighth studio album by American singer-songwriter and bassist Me'Shell Ndegéocello. It was released by Downtown Records on October 6, 2009.

After writing songs for over a year, Ndegéocello recorded Devil's Halo in seven days with audio engineer S. Husky Höskulds. She was accompanied by a band featuring drummer Deantoni Parks, guitarist Chris Bruce, and keyboardist Keefus Ciancia; Bruce and Ciancia produced the record with Ndegéocello. The resulting music featured an eclectic fusion of styles, including alternative rock, soul, and jazz-rock, while Ndegéocello's spiritually complex and ambiguous lyrics spoke of romantic love and loneliness, among other themes.

The album charted modestly, reaching number 185 on the Billboard 200. Critically, it was well received, with most reviewers applauding the emotional depth and challenging quality of the music.
