ARTIST PROFILE
Evan Yoakum
Watertown, Wisconsin USA
band: Falling Flat
STICK SIZE: 5a
I started drumming at age 8 and I’ve been loving music ever since. Today, I play in my band Falling Flat, as well as session drumming for artists that come through my studio. I’m a part-time music producer and recording/mixing engineer in my own studio Red Shed Records. Additionally, I engineer live sound at small gigs and medium-sized festivals. Some other things I enjoy include CNC Machining, building audio gear, and R/C car racing.
My main band Falling Flat has accomplished a lot over the past two years that we have been a band. Some of my favorite things we’ve done include the various music videos we’ve published, releasing our most popular single “Wastin’ My Time”, and opening for some note-worthy artists like Otherwise, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, and Beartooth. Between upcoming interviews, videos, and of course, new music, I’m excited for what’s to come for the band.
WHY DO YOU PLAY COLLISION?
Collision Drumsticks are THE most durable sticks I’ve ever played in my 20 years of playing. What’s more, is they are still unbelievably balanced and weighted for having such Hulk-Like strength. The people who run Collision Drumsticks are top-notch and down-to-Earth. They care about their artists and customers like friends and family. If any one of my drummer friends ever asks about sticks, Collision is the first name that I bring to the table.
