Hailing from Vancouver, BC, Evan was instructed by his grandfather, also a clarinet player, in the tradition of New Orleans jazz clarinet playing from the time he was seven years old. He obtained a BA in saxophone performance, began playing professionally and has traveled worldwide to perform. After moving to New York City in 2014, Evan began working with some of New York’s finest, including Bria Skonberg, Catherine Russell, and Vince Giordano’s Nighthawks at Town Hall, Symphony Space, the Newport Jazz Festival, Jazz at Lincoln Center, and Birdland. He has released three albums as a leader, his latest, “Countermelody,” (Dot Time Records, 2021) received glowing reviews from award-winning jazz journalists Scott Yanow and Ricky Riccardi. In 2022, he graduated from Manhattan School of Music with an MA in Jazz Arts, majoring in clarinet. Evan is also a dedicated educator, maintaining a virtual private teaching studio with students around the world.
