Co-founder, writer and drummer of Soulive for over 15 years, Alan Evans proudly presents his newest creation, Alan Evans
Trio: an inspiring and fresh organ trio lineup. Enlisting the support of good friends and talented players Danny Mayer on
guitar (On the Spot Trio), and Beau Sasser (Melvin Sparks, Akashic Record) the trio's sound proves hard-driving and groovy
with deep, funky melodies and powerful, rhythmic counterplay. Alan Evans Trio opens a window into another side -
an emotional introspection, as dark as it is powerful. Their passionate progressions emanate an electrified, smoky, 70s-era
CTI Records zeitgeist.
Alan Evans Trio's much-anticipated follow-up album, Merkaba, is the perfect road trip album for the everyday space traveler,
and will take listeners on a cosmic funk adventure. With spacey Hammond organ overlays, zero-gravity guitar riffs, and the
rocket powered beats of legendary drummer Alan Evans (Soulive), the Alan Evans Trio follow up album to the criticallyacclaimed
Drop Hop, invites listeners to experience an interstellar musical voyage as deep as space itself.
Produced, recorded, and mixed by the legendary drummer of Soulive, Alan Evans also contributed musically to nearly every
instrument on the album. Additionally, Merkaba features special guest traveler and luminary hip hop guitarist, Mike Feingold
(Jay-Z, Erykah Badu), on banjo, guitar, and keyboard.
In a message sent from the future, Alan Evans comments on Merkaba, “I can't wait for everyone and anyone to hear this
album. This album is all of me. This album is for the loves of my life and there are songs on here that I never thought would
see the light of day but the alignment of the universe made the timing just perfect!”
