Those Nights

Evan Styles and Chris Balcom (formerly of Earle Brown) joined forces with Lindsey James (of Olive Street) in June of 2010 to create a dynamic indie/folk/rock trio. Comprising their sound is a strong foundation of Evan's rich keys and Chris's melodic/rhythmic guitar combined with Lindsey's powerful yet minimalist percussion and permeating melodies from the electric mandolin. In September of 2011, Pete Martin joined the group bringing his bold and colorful trombone style that elevated the band to a fresh new level. And the icing on the cake came a month later when Ephraim 'Sam' Wickline joined with his cello. This band, being constructed of individual songwriters, has a diverse list of influences ranging in and out of nearly every genre. This, along with the non-traditional rock setup used to create high-energy tracks as well as deep soulful melodies, is what sets Those Nights apart from other bands. And it's the haunting vocals, constructed harmonies, and occasional hip-hop flavor that creates the formula for this unforgettable album.
