With a diverse and unique pallet of influences, brilliant technical prowess and an unconventional approach to music, Evan is set to reinvent the bass guitar in the minds of a new generation of music fans. Evan's talent for playing the bass presented itself at an early age. While still in high school in Nashville, TN Brewer took to the bass naturally, attracting the attention of legendary virtuoso Reggie Wooten. What began as a mentor-student relationship blossomed over time into a friendship as Wooten's lessons on technique and musical philosophy had a profound effect on Evan's early musical development.
As fate would have it, Evan Brewer later teamed up with a DC-area band called Reflux featuring Ash Avildsen, who would go on to found Sumerian Records, and Tosin Abasi, now of Animals As Leaders. When Reflux split, Evan became a permanent member of the metal band Animosity which included Navene Koperweis, coincidentally also now a member of Animals As Leaders. Evan Brewer also filled in with other noteworthy metal and hardcore bands on tour including A Life Once Lost and Terror.
As a bass player, Evan can't be pinned to any particular style. Whether he is sitting-in playing funk, jazz, and soul with the Wooten Brothers or contributing to the tech-metal assault of a band like The Faceless, Brewer's signature sound and unmatched versatility are on display. In fact, another mysterious and yet-to-be-released project called Climaxes even features Evan Brewer as a multi-instrumentalist and producer.
While viral videos of Evan playing bass have already captured the hearts and minds of music fans all over the world, his solo bass record -ALONE- will shock listeners not only with its virtuosic playing but also its amazing listen-ability; these songs are not just shallow demonstrations of his factual capability on the instrument, but they are actually enjoyable, often haunting tunes with serious emotional and artistic merit. The album was produced and performed by Evan Brewer alone and features only bass guitar on every track, a truly unique accomplishment for such a compelling release.
