Formed in Wrexham in 2017, by vocalist James O'Shaunessy, drummer Tom Morris and guitarist Alfie Lloyd, Evander took inspiration from heavy pop punk and their dying local music scene to self-release their debut single Drained . After this they reached out to guitarist Evan Roberts and bassist James Edwards to complete their 5-piece band and go on to writing and recording their debut EP Tormented, to be released early February 2018. The band have a lot of different musical influences, some of the more recognisable ones are Knuckle Puck, Trash Boat and WSTR.
