Interview:

Bob Marley once said: “The good thing about music is when it hits, you feel no pain”. For me music has always been my best friend. I give every style a fair chance, even if it’s on the radio, down town, at work, or in the movies. But if it doesn’t strike me directly, then I let it go. For almost all of us, music is a way of communication. Maybe even the best way to really explain how you feel about something or someone. Normally all of us in Evocation are really good at emotions, so the first thing that hits me when I hear a new song, that is what I start to write about. You need to open your mind. Let it in or let it flow, and take your time. When you understand a new song or even a new style it is like being born-again. I’m in to all kinds of music and they all affect me in different ways. Rock and Metal was the start for me, and were the first styles that really hit me. This music is my kind of talking I guess. The best thing about this is that other people understand what I’m talking about. I believe the spiritual significance of music is a free spirit and mind, a whole lot of love, and of course communication.

“When you understand a new song or even a new style it is like being born-again.”
