From 2003 - 2006, Washington DC-based evenout made it clear that they were a band that was more than just a hard-slugging rock act. The balance of guitar-driven heaviness with solid melodic songwriting and acoustic abilities showcased evenout's versatility and sense of adventure.
Evenout's EP, Drown Inside, recorded with famed producer/mixer Steven Haigler (Fuel, Brand New, Pixies, Jimmies Chicken Shack) at Dragonfly Studios (Jason Mraz, SR-71), delivered the instantly-memorable lead single "Look Back". After officially hitting alternative specialty radio nationwide on September 14th, 2004, Look Back charted at ..9 (A&R Worldwide) and ..12 (FMQB) while the full length charted at ..14 (A&R Worldwide). Front man Maurice Mangum explains Look Back as being about "waking up each day convincing yourself you'll make the right decisions, but you just end up doing the same slack shit as the day before. You wake up one day and it's years later... what a waste." Other highlights from Drown Inside include the turbo-charged lead track Controller, and the bittersweet ballad "Fragile Page", buoyed by the raw emotion of Mangum's resounding vocals. As Midwest Record Recap stated, "This is a set [Drown Inside] thats competitive with anything the majors are putting out..."
Though evenout disbanded in 2006, they remain close friends and continue to collaborate on several projects. In 2007 they rejoined to record the track, "Blame", at Dragonfly Recording Studio with their good friend, Scott Spelbring. Last year, Doug, Jason, and Maurice collaborated on two other projects, namely with the bands, No. 2 Pencil and Righteous Fool. For 2009 the guys have decided to get it together for a reunion show, at Jammin' Java on May 8. They are excited to fire it up once again and bring the rock to their friends and fans.
