Bio / Background
Belizean music in Evan's early days was a combination of Brukdon, Lash Weh and Boom an'chime. You can find aspects of all of them in his songs. "I cannot let them go. That's the foundation. But when I write a song, I don't try to write any particular style of song. I just let it be. I believe a song can compose itself, at least that's what I feel. It's all roots with me, so to speak. "
Evan enjoys the music of MIRIAM MAKEBA, LOUIS ARMSTRONG, BELLA CARIB, THE MARLEYS, PETER TOSH and more musicians than you can name.He listens to classical music. He listens to country. Evan doesn't care about listening to any one particular style of music, or being one particular style of musician. "Reggae, I love it! Soca, I love it! Ska! I dig it. Dance Hall. That's it!"
He expresses this thought in a song you can hear on his CD: WE ARE ONE or read in his book: SONGS OF POETRY
Musical Farmer
I don't prejudice when it comes to music.
I no prejudice when it comes to a song.

There are some of them who brag
that all the music come from Africa.
So why they exclude one from another?
All you do is contradict yourself.
I am a musical farmer
I am a musical farmer.
You want to know why? -- I plant my
music in the brain , in the brain
cultivate it in the heart,
in the mind, body and soul.
(Bridge)
I am fighting so hard to make
this one work.
I am fighting so hard to make
this one work.
Can you put jealousy aside
and make this one work?
All I am saying
is come together.
Don't be like crab inna barrel--
as one reach the top, you pull
him back down.
They find fault because they
dislike my progress.
So remember not everyone
will reach that top.
I don't prejudice when it comes to music.
I no prejudice when it comes to a song.
Why exclude one from another?
All you do is contradict yourself.
I am a musical farmer
I am a musical farmer.
