The Bands *PHOTO" In 1982 Evan met James Michael Newland (guitar) and Robert Lee Ivey (drums). They formed the socially conscious pop-punk band, "The Boons." In 1983 they added bassist, Dave Abru, and rapidly began to develop a following as they played underground shows throughout Los Angeles. In 1985, Dave Abru left the band. He was replaced by Mike Clark, and keyboardist Jeff Lang was added. In 1986, The Boons competed in a battle-of-the bands at The Whisky A Go-Go on the Sunset Strip in Hollywood. That evening The Boons were approached by several record label representatives who offered demo-deals. With a journey to Europe planned to play shows in Shauffausen, Basel and Zurich, Switzerland, they put the demo-deal on hold, and flew to Europe. After two months and twenty performances,The Boons disbanded, and the members returned to Los Angeles. In 1988 Evan and bassist Mark Wagner founded the band "Hinge of Fate." Shortly thereafter they added James Michael Newland (guitar), Richard Schagerl (vibraphone and Keyboards), and Jerry Schagerl (drums). Hinge of Fate disbanded in 1991. Evan currently performs with his sons, Luke and Jake, in the trio "The Wyatt Boys."
