John Evans

小簡(jiǎn)介
"Never one to shy away from changing style and direction, Evans has taken a musical scalpel to everything from honky-tonk to punky rockabilly to preppy Old 97's pop-rock, each time with class and muscle." - William Michael Smith - Houston Press - 07/23/08
John Evans can write a song...and make it sound like no other. His cleverly written tunes and unique delivery have been a mainstay in the Texas Music scene for over ten years. He has co-written songs with Hayes Carll, Adam Carroll and Roger Creager, to name a few. His latest collaboration with Creager (I'm From The Beer Joint), was chosen as Roger's first single on his '08 release Here It Is!

His music video for "Quicksand", from the album "Circling The Drain," won a Platinum Remi award at the 2005 WorldFest International Film Festival and another album track, "Swat'n Flies," appears on the soundtrack for popular indie film "Drop Dead Sexy," starring Jason Lee and Crispin Glover, which debuted at SxSW Film Festival and was released internationally in 2007.
The John Evans Band spent most of 2006 touring the U.S. in support of "Ramblin' Boy."
