Evan Isaac was born and raised in a unique town outside of Pittsburgh, PA. He showed an interest in music from a young age. Little songs that he wrote would become part of his psyche and he insisted on performing them. An only child, he found solace in creating imaginary worlds in his mind full of characters with their own voices and songs. He participated in theater in high school and started his own band Crossing Boundaries with Jacob Klein where he wrote and performed music with his friends. They attained some critical acclaim winning the Tri-C High School Rock Off in Cleveland and opening for many big Pittsburgh acts like the Clarks, Rusted Root and even Mac Miller.
During college in LA among an atmosphere of many talented musicians at the USC Thornton School of Music he formed the band GoodKids with Rowdy Kanarek, Sean Alexander, Sidharth Gupta,and Carter Couron. They achieved a small cult following in the LA area. They produced an EP with Walter Ino and continued to record and perform original music, even working with Grammy-award winning producer J.J. Blair. GoodKids was a short-lived band that created a unique, original and beautiful sound and made their mark.
Evan went to India for a month and returned to Los Angeles for a short time. He had no money and no plans and things took a turn for worse. Evan decided to move to Pittsburgh where he eventually met his wife-to be, the incredible artist Lacey Black, and started his solo project that he is still releasing music with to this day.
After college Evan relocated to Pittsburgh for four years where he began this solo project. He is inspired by great artists like of Montreal, Outkast, Carole King, and Silvio Rodriguez. Evan always knew New York City was somewhere he wanted to live as a young adult. His father is from Brooklyn and he spent many weeks every year visiting his family and taking in the city. He even met Blondie while busking as a teenager. Evan is now based in NYC and continues to push the envelope in recorded music.
