MITCHEL EVAN & THE MANGROVE

MITCHEL EVAN & THE MANGROVE

Mitchel Evan & The Mangrove is a three piece band that formed in the Colorado front range just outside of Boulder, and although the group considers themselves a Colorado Band, not one of the members is originally from The Centennial State. Dave Janssen (bassist) is from Baltimore, Maryland; Connor Craven (lead guitar) is from Lancaster, Pennsylvania and Mitchel Evan, the group’s frontman and songwriter was born and raised in Richmond, Virginia. Other than two years spent pursuing an English degree at a University in Pennsylvania, the singer-songwriter lived in his home state up until relocating to Colorado in the summer of 2014. Mitchel spent years writing songs, playing guitar and singing in bands across the rock spectrum, from punk to psychedelic rock to folk and even country. This eclectic musical background has made for an interesting and diverse sound with his current group, The Mangrove.

It can be difficult to put parameters around The Mangrove’s sound, while there are obvious stakes in folk, rock and blues, the band also gives hints of funk, soul and country with modern and progressive elements. The songs are written mostly alone by the band’s frontman on either piano or guitar with collaboration from Janssen who plays bass and sings harmony vocals for the group, but has also played a role in the arrangement and composition of many of Mitchel Evan’s songs. The result of this dynamic duo is nothing short of entirely original, yet strikingly relatable tunes - even timeless.
