Thanks to ECE Presents, Alan Evans returns to his home town tonight to play one of the funkiest shows you'll see all year at Nietzsche's!!! If you haven't heard of Alan Evans or his most popular band, Soulive, then you should not call yourself a Buffalonian. The Evans brothers and their guitarist Krasno complete the band Soulive and have had huge success in the jazz and jamband scene and are taking a short break while they all pursue different projects. Alan Evans is joined by guitarist Danny Mayer and organist Beau Sasser to perform the new songs Alan has recently written. As always, it will be funky and unbelievably fun. I have seen Evans perform more than any other drummer and I never get tired of how insanely funky and talented this man can play. Also performing tonight are local aritsts Eric Crittenden and Logocity, as well as Rochester's Audioinflux. The show starts at 8 pm with a higher admission price than Nietzsche's usually charges but a well deserved $15 cover. Part of the proceeds go to benefit The West Side and Black Rock/ Riverside Neighborhood Housing Services thanks to the Good Neighborhood.
Buffalo's favorite hometown drummer is making it back to Buffalo this weekend for an absolutely amazing collaboration with some of Buffalo's finest local music. Alan Evans of Soulive is returning to the stage of DBGB's joining local rock band Free Henry! and funk-soul DJ, DJ Cutler. Alan Evans and his brother Neal both grew up in Buffalo, graduating from City Honors and went to form the organ jazz trio Soulive with guitarist Eric Krasno in Woodstock, NY in 1999. The band has been hugely successful in the jazz and jamband community. Honestly, if you live in Buffalo and have never seen Soulive, I'd be surprised.
This amazing collaboration of musicians was organized by local do-good organization The Good Neighborhood. This is the first "Pushin' the Evnvelope" event and will continue to be a quarterly event. The evening will begin with a mixer from 7-8pm that will include open bar and appetizers from DBGB’s new menu, with local trio the Square Circle performing. Admission to both the mixer and concert is $15 (only $10 if you arrive after 8 pm - but you miss the open bar!!) with a percentage of door proceeds plus raffles and a silent auction benefiting PUSH Buffalo. Check out the facebook event for more info.
