(CMJ) Rumors are swirling about which artists will be dropped from Capitol Music Group after the merger of Capitol with Virgin in January. Today, New York native Kevin Devine posted a MySpace blog confirming that he is no longer at the label. After playing a show in Nashville last week, his manager informed him of the news. According to Devine, the label decided to go in a different direction without him, however allowing him to shop around his Capitol release, Put Your Ghost To Rest."It was definitely a roll of the dice to begin with," Devine explained exclusively to CMJ. "I guess I feel the music industry is such a dissolving dinosaur I dont think it matters anymore where you sign. But we've had a good relationship with the people [at Capitol]. No smoke and mirrors. I guess that has helped us in the end."
