Details

Join us for a memorable night of connection and community with the uplifting, thoughtful and joyous music of multi-talented artist Will Evans on FRIDAY, September 20th at the Velvet Elk in Boulder! Be a part of this special night immersed within Will's nuanced artistry. Our bodies will move and our spirits will soar!

Will Evans pulls everyone into his embrace. He musically accesses a space without boundaries where all are welcome to commune openly and move freely. Through quotable folk-inspired lyrics, breezy grooves, and roots energy, it’s as if he’s giving you permission to be that pure self you can’t always be at work or even at home. Evans' songs speak to the importance of connecting with—and protecting–the earth. At a time when so many are looking for words of inspiration and reassurance, his songs deliver messages of family, love, hope, and inclusion. The Rhode Island-based singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist puts his words into action via his “Kind Folk” fan community, activating small acts of kindness, charity, and goodwill in tandem with performances nationwide. By rotating between acoustic guitar, didgeridoo, handpan, percussive beatboxing, and more, he has developed a living and breathing signature sound of his own. Between selling out shows across the U.S. and Europe, he has graced bills alongside Crosby & Nash, Grace Potter, Bruce Hornsby, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Trevor Hall, and Railroad Earth.
River Mann is here to ferry you across the waters, whether you are a boat lost at sea or a soul in need of warmth.

Led by singer–songwriter William Thomas, this exciting new project out of Colorado’s vibrant music scene will move you through sound, story, and the subconscious. Taking inspiration from American roots music, contemporary folk, progressive rock, and classical music, River Mann’s transcendent and energetic live performances promise a journey of dancing, swooning, smiling, and moments of introspection. Full of heart and spirit, this music delves into the human condition with sincerity and compassion.
