This latest EP, Daylight, is a collection of songs that guitarist Evan Handyside wrote over 2014. Just like his previous effort, Sinking Ships & Wooden Kings (2012) Evan is playing a single nylon-string guitar.The Daylight – EP is an evolution of Evan’s minimalist style, reverb swept sound, and subtle guitar wizardry. At first listen, the Daylight EP has a deeper mood than the previous album. The initial impression can only be described as poignant, or melancholy. However, you will realize a more subtle optimism expressed within the music.Evan Handyside (age 37) is self-employed guitar teacher in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania with over 20 years experience. He has also performed throughout the Northeast as the bass player for the (Pittsburgh-based) rock band, New Invisible Joy, and has released four albums on their indie-label Goldwish records. While a member of New Invisible Joy, Evan opened for numerous national artists like John Mayor and The Killers. He has also performed on television, radio, and at major-label showcases. New Invisible Joy’s second EP was recorded in New York city with major-label producer/engineer Ed Tuton.Currently, Evan lives in the South Hills of Pittsburgh with his wife Jennifer. He continues to run a successful teaching business while pursuing his passion for modern-composition on the classical guitar.All tracks composed, performed, and recorded by Evan Handyside.Mastering by Larry Luther at Mr Smalls Recording and Mastering.
