Evan McHugh

With a background in the arts, Evan McHugh has always followed wherever inspiration led. It seems music has taken the lead these days, turning an avid reader, creative writer, graphic designer and self-taught guitarist/singer-songwriter into a new performer that will impact and enrich the current music landscape. Taking a lesson from his sister Eryn, the English major, Evan has merged personal stories colored with vivid imagery to unforgettable melodies creating songs that above all else are strikingly original.

Take a listen to his independent album, From the Second Chair (produced by Glenn Matullo), and you will find an inescapable commitment to the pursuit of the song. Evan's writing and truly distinctive voice pull every listener into his unique world. You can find Evan performing live on the East coast.

REVIEWS:
5 out of 5 Stars
"With likeness to Damien Rice, Chris Martin of Coldplay and John Mayer, his approach, while folk-driven, sometimes touches on the border of jazz, enriched by shuffley drums, dreamy piano lines and warm, strumming guitar swimming in major-7 chords. Evan reminds us that there is a real difference between good music and great music; whatever that difference may be, however tangible or elusive, you will find it in his album, From the Second Chair."
