The Evergreen Effect
Reviewed: 02.07.07
Acoustically driven, funky, vintage rock" is how The
Evergreen Effect like to describe their sound. Imagine putting
there cd in and driving down a highway with the sun shining
and not a care in the world that’s the feeling you
get when you listen to the track "Something Better."
The vocals are reminiscent of a jazz , folk, and blues singer
and are comparative to bands on the radio already. Musically
they are doing a lot of things right with the lyrics blending
perfectly. The music is very soothing and relaxing with
melody that will have you singing along. Their songs will
take you through a story of hardship or life with catchy
lyrics and folksy instruments like harmonicas and tambourines.
The Evergreen Effect are in touch with Washington and feel
that people from the state are more understanding of the
music they make.
Guitarist/Vocalist/Harmonica player Chase Ruebel's writes
most of the songs and lyrics. Stan Howell plays bass and
provides backup vocals with Sean Crouter playing drums and
helping with vocals.
The band has been playing within the vicinity of Seattle
since early 2006, and are making plans to soon expand their
range down to Oregon and into Idaho as well. Their official
mascot, a smiling tree, serves as a symbol of peace. They
are on there way to recording a full length album by this
summer. The Evergreen Effect are very compassionate and
motivated to make music that is pleasing to the ear and
bring a smile to your face. Check out www.myspace.com/theevergreeneffect
for some of their music.
