Simple people playing simple songs that we hope will bring a little light.
Before establishing himself as a solo artist, Evan started out as a member of John Peel favourites "Pariah" and "The Sky At Night" supporting such bands as Interpol, Doves and Clem Snide. He has since begun to carve out his own impressive reputation, supporting Seth Lakeman, Aereogramme, Biffy Clyro, and most recently Stephen Fretwell as part of T on the Fringe 2007.
Evan Crichton released his debut album “Bright Our Broken Days” on Mister Tramp Records in November 2006, and just after release, joined Mister Tramp founders Laura Hastie and Roz Laing in running the label.

Please check out Mister Tramp (www.myspace.com/mistertramprecords) for further news on Evan Crichton recordings and gigs, other releases, and live events.
Evan Crichton's debut album "Bright Our Broken Days" released on Mister Tramp Records is now available to buy on-line. Payable through Paypal, the price is £7.50 (which includes all postage and packing charges) and can be shipped worldwide.
"Evan Crichton's debut EP finds his sparkling vocal and songwriting skills coming to the fore. Opener, 'Cracks,' sets the tone with downbeat backing but soaring delivery and tale of hope, and throughout the record this mood and vein carries on. 'Shine for Me, Hal' has a woosy church organ intro, and there's a lot of different instruments peppering this album, however, they all pale compared to Evan's voice. There's enough to showcase the talent that Evan carries and if you get the chance to check him out live, get yourself along. 4/5"

"...do we love this album? Does the Pope shit in the woods…? For those of us who didn't already know it, Off The Beaten Track offers us proof that Scottish music is undergoing something of a renaissance at present... it also acts as a tantalising taster of what's to come over the next twelve months or so. The future's bright - the future's tartan." 5/5
