GOT A STORY IDEA? Ta^n
from the norm
Intellectual pop rock band Evelate doesn't lose sight of the
music in a world dominated by starry-eyed wannabes
BY AMY LICHTY
SENIOR PULSE REPORTER
What better way to make millions
of dollars, meet women and become
a household name than to join a
band? Being the next rock star is
every young musician’s dream. Un
fortunately, sometimes the Holly
wood lifestyle can cause musicians
to lose sight of the most important
aspect of being in a band the music.
However, there are some bands
that come through Eugene that have
their sights set for spotlights in ven
ues scattered across America
rather than the bright lights of Holly
wood. Evelate happens to be one of
those bands, and fortunately for
Eugene music fans, they will be play
ing at Diablo's Downtown Lounge
Friday night.
Founded in a Corvallis apartment
complex by three friends, Evelate
has strong influences from across
the musical board, including Sub
lime, 311, early Incubus and System
of a Down.
"I would call our music 'switch
rock,'" Chris Baron, lead singer and
guitar player of Evelate, said. "It’s
like alternative rock, but it has a lot
of changes and funky transitions; it's
highly organized."
Bassist Brody Lowe agreed,
describing their music as eclectic
and original.
"It's kind of an intellectual pop
rock. It doesn't really stay within the
pop rock realm," said Brody, an Ore
gon State University student. "It kind
of goes out into different chord
changes and it's something you don't
really hear in music today."
"That's been our goal as a band up
to this point: to make music that is
abnormal, but that's still accessible
to the average listener," Andy Sad
owski, drummer for Evelate said.
"We try to mix technically complex
music with catchy hooks and di
verse transitions and we wantto
keep our listeners on their toes."
Evelate has keptthis promise for
almost two years. All three members
of Evelate were previously involved
with other musical projects, but de
cided to dedicate as much time as
possible to developing their own
new music. Their name was derived
from a song by Rush, one of Sad
owski's biggest musical influences.
"Being a die-hard Rush fan and
thinking of how they inspired me, I
remembered a line from one of my
favorite songs by Rush," Sadowski
said. "It's called 'Vital Signs' off the
'Moving Pictures' album. The song's
basic theme is deviating from the
norm, and at the end of the song,
Geddy Lee (the lead singer) sings,
'Everybody got to elevate from the
norm... over and over, but one ran
dom time, he says 'Everybody got to
EVELATE from the norm.'"
