good evening

Good Evening formed on the Ides of March shortly after Weston Rose had decided to remain on spring break from law school for the rest of his life. Alyssa Martinez had recently graduated from art school and was, therefore, confused and directionless. When it was revealed that Alyssa could sing, tap dance, play violin and keep up with Weston's partying, they naturally decided to form a band. The pair began working on material, but soon found that a crucial element was missing from their performances: a physicist-piano player.

When it was revealed that Alyssa could sing, tap dance, play violin and keep up with Weston's partying, they naturally decided to form a band. The pair began working on material, but soon found that a crucial element was missing from their performances: a physicist-piano player.

After auditioning dozens of players from all the top universities, they happened to meet Matthew Sternberg through a mutual friend. In addition to the necessary piano and trigonometry skills, Matthew also possessed whiskey and a healthy thirst for whiskey, making him the natural choice on keys. Davis Krieg, also discovered through a mutual friend, joined soon after, bringing with him a 1937 Martin tenor guitar, a most refined ponytail, and a bottle of Maker's Mark. The group began performing at speakeasies and underground parties, as well as opening for Chicago bands at local venues. Soon it was time for David Rose to realize his destiny and join the band as well. The two cousins, David and Weston, had been best friends and sometimes band-mates since birth, but Good Evening was to be their ultimate musical adventure.

Good Evening's greatest pleasure is to please. Specializing in ?midnight broken glass love songs' that can make Dubstep DJs teary-eyed and grandmas nod their heads with approval, their sound is appropriate to all-night ragers, weddings and campfires, as well as cafes, bars and auditoriums. With eclectic musical backgrounds and interests, and the ability to play in varying forms and combinations, the band has a dynamic sound, full of happiness and heartache, whiskey and woe.

Good Evening is based in Chicago and released their first full-length studio album, In Public, in July 2010.
