Neo This is a guilty pleasure. Usually I don't like solo vocal stuff but this guy's voice and style of music is so good I had to make an exception! Favorite track: greenfield st..

Aj LaGambina Evan keeps getting better on his own, and the darker harmonies and spot-on lead vocals speak to that. I dare you not to sing along. Favorite track: heart to focus.

Jeff Ross I Loved How Raw And Meaningful This Ep Is. Evans Voice Perfectly Sets The Melancholy Atmosphere Of The Album. Favorite track: true north.

Ethan Dale One of the most inspirational and touching songs I've ever heard. Months and months after it's release, this song still gives me goosebumps with every listen. Favorite track: true north.

Verse 1 This one hits me close to home and its a shame that i had waited for so long to tell you just how wrong it felt living empty and alone but i've finally made it out and don't know where to go from here I'm free of all my doubts as they slowly disappears Chorus We are where we're meant to be there's no turning back from here Running blind into the dark without a worry in the world We are falling faster than we ever have before Searching for a purpose in our lives while we're reaching out for more Always reaching out for more Verse 2 The grounds giving way now deep in over my head, but ill make it out Hands reaching from the grave to give something more, a belief in the brave Pull yourself out of the ground Be who you are, be here and now Chorus We are where we're meant to be there's no turning back from here Running blind into the dark without a worry in the world We are falling faster than we ever have before Searching for a purpose in our lives while we're reaching out for more We are falling faster, faster we are falling faster

level head 04:00
Verse 1 Made my way back home from all i'd done i was lost, but i had won I took pride in my last name but moving on has always felt the same It was always just the same Chorus When i saw you standing there i knew it could never be undone I heard all your lies echoing throughout every room And i learned my lesson well Cut ties to all i've owned Why it took so long to let go, i guess i'll never know Verse 2 Found this buried inch deep in the ground The night grew cold and void of sound I fought to my wits end While searching for a way to save myself Chorus When i saw you standing there i knew it could never be undone I heard all your lies echoing throughout every room and i learned my lesson well Cut ties to all i've owned Why it took so long to let go, i guess ill never know Bridge I've always thought myself an honest, simple man Doing all i can to keep a level head Chorus

true north 04:21
Verse 1 You were kind and you were patient, always sitting just the same In your corner of the kitchen, building all those model planes You had two sons and three daughters, raised them all the better for You kept peace inside of your harbor I couldn't tell you who loved you more Verse 2 We had spent maybe an hour in the summer of "04" talking just like old friends would, sitting out on the back porch You said you were proud of my direction you knew i found my true north I hope you can see how much everyone loved you and hear these words Chorus We lost ourselves that day, as you found your way in to the light It was your time to fly north for good as we watched your spirit take flight a trail of hope in to the night Chorus

Verse 1 This house is haunting all my dreams its keeping me from waking up These walls are hiding things from me and faintly calling out my name There's a presence in the halls i hear their voices late at night If i could somehow guide them all into the light Chorus That's the thing about ghosts, they say they wont leave until the moment they're at peace What are you missing the most, the hardest part of moving on is always the letting go Verse 2 I cant accept the consequence of getting all wrapped up in this Im losing touch with common sense and blurring the lines of consciousness There's a presence in these halls i feel they're sadness in my bones If i could somehow find the light to guide them home Bridge No you're not where you belong All of your loved ones are waiting Now that your business here is done Im hoping you'll be moving on Chorus

Verse 1 Is this the last song i will write is this the first time losing a loved one meant staying behind meant staying behind oh no I only wanted for something more never settle in to something that you cant stand for that you cant stand for oh no Be who you are at any cost Chorus Will i ever make it past this Can i take a chance and hope my heart to focus You'll look so lonely, so lonely You look so lonely living a lie Im better off on the outside oh oh oh Verse 2 I made my way though darker nights I've hid my face from whiter lights, and I made it out alive I made it out alive Lets say it's all in good time, lets say its all in good time Chorus Will i ever make it past this Can i take a chance and hope my heart to focus You'll look so lonely, so lonely You look so lonely living a lie Im better off on the outside Bridge Oh oh oh, lets say its all in good time Chorus Did i really make it past this I fought the night and won, enjoyed it while it lasted Its not so lonely, so lonely Its not so lonely living this life Its not so lonely, so lonely Its not so lonely living this life We're all better off on the outside

about

"Darker Nights" is the follow up EP to Wind In Sails debut album "Brighter Days". This album has a much more focused and stripped down vibe, as well as a more personal approach to the recording process in general. With tracks like the single "Level Head" and the closing track "Heart to focus" this album is finely crafted with beautiful harmonies and sincere lyrics.
