From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kevin Matisyn is the singer for the band Evans Blue

Before forming the band in February 2005, Matisyn aimed to be a paramedic and worked for Canadian Blood Services.

Matisyn wrote the lyrics and created the vocal harmonies and melodies for both Evans Blue albums, The Melody and the Energetic Nature of Volume and The Pursuit Begins When This Portrayal of Life Ends.
