Evan Hutchings was Born and raised in Arkansas, Evan grew up playing drums at his dad’s church in Fort Smith. He was the kid that would sit behind the drummer during church and soak in every detail and nuance. Once church let out, he’d jump up on the kit and play, until the next church service started a few hours later.
Evan got his first drum set at the age of 8 and began serenading his whole
family and neighborhood with punk rock beats and the sounds of the
radio. After touring the country with his band The Exception, Evan
decided it was time to move to Nashville, TN and attend Middle Tennessee
State under the direction of Lalo Davila and Tom Giampietro. It was in
college where Evan honed his craft and wanted to become a studio
musician.
