Opener: Holly & Evan Band at The Falcon

About

www.hollyandevan.com

Holly & Evan live for the blues. Both from rich musical backgrounds, Holly Taormina and Evan Conway have joined together with drummer Bob Morris, and saxophonist Josh Greenberg, to update the traditions of the Barrelhouse, with their unique and electric style. Holly's songwriting comes from a lifetime of reading about, listening to, and living the lifestyle of the blues. Her original songs, such as "Parchman Prison" and "Satisfied," were inspired by the hardships endured by many of the Mississippi blues greats. In their four years together, Holly & Evan have actively pushed the boundaries of traditional blues music, mixing in hefty loads of jazz, funk and soul; culminating in two appearances at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis TN in 2013 and 2014.
