Looking back over the past 25 years of rootsy, string-based music, the impact of Leftover Salmon is impossible to deny. Formed in Boulder at the end of 1989, the Colorado slamgrass pioneers were one of the first bluegrass bands to add drums and tour rock & roll bars, helping Salmon become a pillar of the jam band scene and unwitting architects of the jam grass genre. Though the lineup would change through the years, the foundation of Leftover Salmon was built on the relationship between co-founders Drew Emmitt (vocals, guitar, fiddle, mandolin), Vince Herman (vocals, guitar,washboard) and Mark Vann (electric banjo).
Today, Leftover Salmon is: Vince Herman (vocals, acoustic and electric guitar, mandolin); Drew Emmitt (vocals, mandolin, acoustic and electric guitar, mandola, fiddle); Andy Thorn (vocals, acoustic and electric banjo, National guitar); Greg Garrison (vocals, acoustic and electric bass, acoustic guitar); Jose Martinez (drums, percussion).

When Alan is not behind the kit rockin’ a show, most likely he’s putting something together somewhere - or maybe taking it apart. Alan is a builder – that simply who he is. Of course, he is best known for playing drums in Soulive – a band he founded and that has toured the world over and again. He has shared the stage with everyone from Stevie Wonder to Chaka Khan, from Dave Matthews to John Scofield. To the outside, he is a world-renowned drummer, respected by fans and musicians alike and that is a big part of his story. To those who know him well, there is another part of his story. Alan has come to define the modern concept of the renaissance man – a man, known for a certain skill, but equally adept at many others – husband, father, builder, producer, engineer, web designer, guitarist, keyboardist and creative conceptualist. Alan is also now focusing on his new band, the Alan Evans Trio with guitarist Danny Mayer and organist Beau Sasser. The trio is all set to record a brand new album of Alan's original music this February and begin touring in the spring of 2012.
