Simon Llewelyn Evans at San Juan Vineyard

Simon Llewelyn Evans is an Australian singer-songwriter whose evocative storytelling and haunting melodies set him apart as a singular voice in contemporary folk music. He has been hailed as “a case apart, a special phenomenon” (Rootstime Magazine, Belgium). His debut album soared to the #2 spot on the Australian folk charts, establishing him as a formidable talent in the genre.

His music is a raw exploration of the human experience, delving into themes of sexuality, loss, death, spirituality, and the intricate dance of relationships. His songwriting is deeply shaped by a life lived across vast landscapes, from the sunburnt earth of Australia to the remote beauty of the Fijian islands. Now based in Western Washington, on the ancestral lands of the Nooksack, Lummi, and other Coast Salish peoples, he finds new inspiration in the mist-laden forests and rugged coastline of the Pacific Northwest.

He continues to perform throughout the Pacific Northwest in support of his latest album, Something Real, a collection of songs that push the boundaries of folk music with poetic lyricism and intimate, soul-stirring performances. His work continues to captivate audiences, cementing his place as a standout voice in modern folk.

This event is outdoors with limited seating. Outside food, picnic blankets, and low-profile lawn chairs are welcome.
