A folk singer in Los Angeles.When I say Los Angeles I mean
East LA, Echo Park, Silver Lake. This night Evan was singing on his own and then his
girlfriend, Melissa Castellano of NONNI BAG Designs, got up to sing with him the rest of the night.
The folk scene in LA is getting interesting… for now. I am always waiting for the main stream to
come in and take over these, no faker, scenes. Eventually, it will happen.
The folk music seems to attract the same musicians, and the same crowd. This is nice, because you go
to a show, and you know the crowd, the musicians, and they know you back.
Evan ApRoberts and many other musicians such as Frank Fairfield, The Dough Rollers, Cave Country, Shakey Graves, and the
Fleet Foxes are just some musicians that take me back to a time my parents and grandparents only know about.
Glad to know that the music is being carried on with talent, and grace even in a town that’s full of Glam, and Fake.
