The Evanstones
Originally lab chimps working as mild mannered reporters for a quaint metropolitan newspaper, The Evanstones came to earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal monkey men. Upon their arrival at the Ellis Island of Dr Moreau from the old country, the Evanstones changed their name from The Evansteins and were on their way to the fickle fate of forgotten fame and fortune!
High Glow
Shining through a tidal wave of darkness and uncertainty, High Glow drifts between a euphoric daydream and an acid flashback. Known for their fuzzed-out guitar tones, driving rhythms, and thunderous beats layered beneath shimmering, bleached-out vocals. Their signature style affectionately dubbed, “Sludge-Gaze” evokes the early ’90s while weaving in nostalgic threads of grunge, post-punk, sludge, and shoegaze. It’s grunge with a cherry on top.
High Glow’s lineup features Tyler Rachal (Risley, Hollow Giant) on lead vocals and guitar, Andrea Tragesser (Apathy's Last Kiss, Trojan Hearse) on vocals and bass, Daniel Pouliot (Horse the Band, Ancestors) on guitar and vocals, and Zak Andree (Hollow Giant, Killer Canary) on drums. Together, the group has crafted a distinctive sound that blends genres seamlessly, pairing catchy melodies with raw, heartfelt emotion.
Their debut album, “Unlikely Futures,” was released on May 30th, 2025. Recorded at The Hallowed Halls with chief engineer Justin Phelps (Cake, Amanda Palmer, Mars Volta), the record was mixed by Gabe Van (Failure, M83, Youth Code) and mastered by Adam Gonsalves at Telegraph (Elliott Smith, Y La Bamba, Pelican). Since its release, High Glow has been actively performing throughout the Pacific Northwest, continuing to build momentum and connect with new audiences.
Notable highlights include: headlining Portland’s Femme Fatale Fest, which raised 5K for Rose Haven, a nonprofit supporting women, children, and marginalized genders. They also performed at Volume Bomb VIII Fest alongside Spoon Benders, 1876, and Berzerk. Beyond their live shows, Portland based Sizzle Pie pizza created an exclusive pie named after the band, which was featured on Oregon’s KOIN 6 News. Additionally, their third single “Hideaway” was selected for this year’s PDX POP NOW compilation album, celebrating Portland’s most exciting emerging acts. As their debut record continues to gain traction, it has received airplay on KEXP, Portland Radio Project, Shady Pines Radio, and many more.
High Glow is actively booking for the future.
