8-piece Avant-Americana genre-bending band The Evangenitals sound more like they hail from a rural Appalachian psychedelic dream than Los Angeles, which can be credited to in part to band leader Juli Crockett’s vocals and Zappa-esque sensibility.

The Alt-Country band have recorded 4 albums, including Moby Dick: or, The Album (Fluff and Gravy 2014), which No Depression described as “manic, diverse, unusual and creative songwriting and delivery at its best.”

They’ve played all over the world, including the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Lightning In A Bottle and The Melissa Etheridge Cruise.

Joining Crockett on vocals/guitar is Joey Maramba (bass), Andrea Baker (violin), Michael Feldman (keys), Cody Farwell on steel guitar, Danny Graziani (harmonica, mandolin, and viola), Rob Shaffer (drums), and Nick Stone on percussion.

“Fun, freedom, and freak folk all delivered with a huge capital ‘F’” (SeatlePi)

“Their sound is a chimera of American music, a blend of country, bluegrass, jazz and rock, with soul-fondling lyrics, which might leave your skin wet from dancing and your eyes dripping tears of joy all in the same evening.” (Monterey County Weekly)

“Transports you back to a time when the music came from front porches and folk gatherings that allowed for the songwriting to take center stage.” (Today's Country Magazine)
