About the FestEVOL Bands:

BARENAKED LADIES
These Canadian rockers from Toronto are best known for such hit singles as “One Week”, “If I Had $1,000,000”, “Pinch Me”, and “The Old Apartment.” The band’s current members include Jim Creegan, Kevin Hearn, Ed Robertson, and Tyler Stewart. Barenaked Ladies have sold more than 12 million records and their work has earned them 2 Billboard Music Awards and 2 Grammy nominations. The band is also known for their environmental efforts partnering with Reverb to form, the “Barenaked Planet”, which is the band’s label for their project to offset their carbon footprint while touring.

GUSTER
The members of Guster, Adam Gardner, Ryan Miller and Brian Rosenworcel formed the band while attending Tufts University in 1991. Known for such singles as “Amsterdam”, “Satellite”, and their current single, “Do You Love Me?”, Guster continues to maintain a strong college fanbase. Guster is also leading the way with their initiatives to make a difference by “greening” tours of major music acts including The Dave Matthews Band and John Mayer. Guster guitarist, Adam Gardner and his wife Lauren Sullivan founded Reverb in 2004. Reverb raises awareness and support through the efforts of an interactive eco-village that travels with major headlining acts.

BIG HEAD TODD AND THE MONSTERS
The band was formed in 1986 with Todd Park Mohr on guitar and vocals, Brian Nevin on drums and vocals and Rob Squires on bass and vocals. The trio had attended Columbine High School together. Mohr attended Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado and transferred to the University of Colorado to join Nevin and Squires. The three began touring clubs in Denver, Fort Collins, and Boulder as Big Head Todd and the Monsters in 1987. The band soon built up a following throughout Colorado and the West. They toured extensively throughout the Mountain States and West Coast of the United States in their van dubbed ‘The Colonel’, which was driven over 400,000 miles. After a few records, and years of touring, they embellished their basic three-piece sound with the addition of keyboardist Corey Mauser and vocals from Hazel Miller, demonstrating their broadening style and sound to audiences all over.

PETE KILPATRICK BAND
The Pete Kilpatrick Band hails from the coastal city of Portland, Maine. They have been named Maine’s best act four times in the Portland Best Music Awards and have performed over 1,000 shows since their formation. They have been referred to as a “folk singer-songwriter with a rock ‘n’ roll band,” and the band feels that’s a perfect title. Band members Pete Morse, Tyler Stanley, Matt Cosby, and Ed Dickhaut are five close friends who have a deep appreciation for writing and performing music.
