A lifelong surfer and environmentalist, Will Evans’ songs speak to the importance of connecting with – and protecting – the earth. At a time when so many are looking for words of inspiration and reassurance, his songs deliver messages of family, love, hope, and inclusion. Showcasing his skills as a multi-instrumentalist, Evans displays technical mastery of live-looping in his shows that include the didgeridoo, steel drums, percussive beatboxing, acoustic guitar, and layers of soulful vocals. Will spent the last decade as the frontman for the much loved band Barefoot Truth, who released four albums. On his solo journey he’s released three albums and toured extensively with his friend, mentor, and fellow conscious-roots musician Trevor Hall, performing for sold-out crowds across North America and Europe. His album “Rise” was nominated for three categories by the New England Music Awards: Album of the Year, Roots Act of the Year, and Video of the Year. The album features deeply personal topics of humanity, compassion, and a reflection of the current political times.
