The EVIN RUDES
The Evin Rudes is a top 40's rock and roll band whose three members have been playing music in the Seattle area for the past twenty-five years. They came together for the first time in 1998 and formed The EVIN RUDES. Dan Baroh provides great guitar work and vocals while Jim DeJoy gives Dan and Ed the percussion and backup vocals they need.
Ed Kion performs all the keyboard and key-bass duties, sings lead and backup vocals.
The band performs music ranging from the 70’s, 80’s, 90's and 00's. Yes, 00's such as Bruce Springsteen's "Radio Nowhere". Other top forty hits on our recent song list include songs by such bands as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Santana, Grand Funk, Wild Cherry, Journey, Foreigner, Steve Miller,The Kinks and ZZ Top to John Mellencamp, Tom Petty, Tears For Fears, earlier Bruce Springsteen hits, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Dire Straits, and The Cars.
The Evin Rudes had the privilege of performing as both warm up band and back up band for rock and roll legend Mitch Ryder at the 2001 Issaquah Music Festival. This has led to numerous private and public events such as The Hat Island Commodores Ball, The Bear Creek Annual Golf Tournament and Dance, The Olde Burien Block Party, Strawberry Festival and many corporate parties. It's obvious we love to play and would like to see you at any of our gig's.
A week without music is like a year without sunshine!!!
