Evertheory

This is the mantra of San Gabriel Valley-based (California, US) indie band, Evertheory. Each member brings to the table a vast pool of inspiration and influences from rock, folk, alternative, classical music, metal, world music and jazz, and all of this comes together to become a fusion of styles that is melo-dramatic post-alternative. Vocalist Jae, guitarist Prudencio, percussionist Barbosa, and bassist Peterson make it a point to push the creative direction of the band forward with each new song. Guitarist/backing vocalist Prudencio uses theatrical riffs and intricate chord arrangements to create driving and memorable images in the music. This is counter-balanced by the jazz-derived guitar-like strumming of Peterson on lead bass. Percussionist Barbosa provides flowing drumlines that keep the rhythm section alive and grounded and above it all rise the warm, melodic voicings of Jae. Since forming late in 2007 as an experiment in music, Evertheory continues to create new songs and play throughout the Los Angeles area.
