From the rubber capital of the world, Akron, Ohio, the industrial city that spawned such bands as Devo, emerges a fresh, young indie rock outfit known as Waiting for Evangeline. At a time when buzz-generating bands like the Black Keys are bringing a lot of attention to the northeastern Ohio music scene, Waiting for Evangeline is making their contribution to the indie rock/emo genre by writing well-crafted, emotional, honest songs blended from the members various influences.
The band was formed in the spring of 2003 by guitarist, vocalist Aaron Novak and drummer B.J. Barbieri. It was completed with the additions of bassist Chad Jolly and guitarist Josh Clevenger, and most recently Chas Tesar on synthesizer. Waiting for Evangeline is a driven, goal oriented band, fused from some of the finest local acts. Combine all of their talents with an energetic live show and you have a band that is motivated to write, record, and tour non-stop. Their songs are powerful, dynamic, and precisely written and weave in and out, from serene and melodic to intense and chaotic.
Waiting for Evangeline plays often, from the classic Grog Shop in Cleveland, to the Lime Spider in Akron, with bands such as the Jealous Sound, Hey Mercedes, Minus the Bear, Murder by Death, Fallout Boy, Mae, These Arms Are Snakes, Dead Poetic, Armor for Sleep, Engine Down, Vaux, Brandtson, Fire When Ready, and the Beautiful Mistake. And with the release of their first full length System Malfunction and a spring tour on the horizon, there's no stopping these Akron boys.
IN MARCH OF 2006, WAITING FOR EVANGELINE DECIDED TO GO OUR SEPERATE WAYS!!!!!
