Devin Townsend is a Canadian musician, vocalist, guitarist, and producer whose work spans extreme metal, progressive rock, ambient, and orchestral music.

With over 30 studio albums across projects including the Devin Townsend Project and Casualties of Cool, he is regarded as one of progressive metal's most prolific and genre-defying figures.
