EVAN K is a 21-year old Greek/German guitarist & composer whose very melodic & memorable playing is fully displayed on Blue Lightning's 9 tracks. Highlights include "Skies Of Shred," "Into The Light," "Orchestra Of Withered Clouds," and a cover of the classic BLACK song, "Everything Is Coming Up Roses." Evan is influenced by Gus G, Jeff Loomis, Andy James, Yngwie Malmsteen, John Petrucci, Uli Jon Roth, Michael Romeo, Gary Moore, Michael Schenker, and Ritchie Blackmore. He has just finished recording his debut album, Blue Lightning, which features some famous guests from the Power-Progressive Metal Scene like Fabio Lione (Rhapsody Of Fire, Angra, Vision Divine), who sings lead vocals on the songs "Edge Of The Sky" & "One Last Time," and keyboards by Bob Katsionis (Firewind, Serious Black, Outloud). He started playing electric guitar at the age of 11, and he received Jazz Electric Guitar & Jazz Music Harmony/Theory Berklee College Of Music degrees via the "Philippos Nakas" & "Ihogenesi" Conservatories in Athens, Greece at the age of 17. Evan also studied Electric Guitar & Popular Music Design at the Popakademie Baden-Württemberg, University Of Popular Music and Music Business in Mannheim, Germany.

Blue Lightning is a great showcase of lightning fingers dancing over guitar strings, and it is a very good album.
