The inaugural EVOL presents FESTEVOL at Future Yard, Birkenhead was the feel-good return to normality event of last summer.
It featured a beautifully curated lineup, mixing the best up and coming bands from around the country and Merseyside and it sold out in mere hours.
The excitement was palpable and on the day it proved true as so many attendees who had not seen their friends or any live music for almost two years were able to feel human again and enjoy bands performing onstage with beaming smiles on their faces.
On Saturday 2 July EVOL presents yet another eclectic mix of the best up and coming groups from around the country. Headlined by Cardiff’s phenomenal Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard and their hometown pals BBC 6 Music darlings Panic Shack.
There are guest appearances from the Isle of Wight’s Coach Party, London’s Deep Tan and Manchester’s Body Water all buttressed by some of the finest talent Merseyside and Chester has to offer with Peaness, The Dream Machine, Bandit, The Peach Fuzz, Blondes, Psycho Comedy, Hushtones, Bobby West & The Outsiders, The Merchants, Razzmatazz, and Leonie & The Lawless.
Promoter Revo said, “Last summer was bitter-sweet for me as I got hit with Covid the week before FestEvol so I couldn’t enjoy my work in person and had to watch the online reactions to what was happening from afar.
“It was pure bad luck, so I decided that day I would do it again a year later and hoped I’d be able to go myself. I’m very happy with the lineup, it’s a very balanced mix of my favourite new groups from around the country and my favourite bands based here that play regular EVOL shows in Liverpool and it’s nice to bring them to a state of the art forward thinking venue in Birkenhead, a place that’s been deprived of live touring music for almost 25 years.
“I’m just looking forward to getting stuck in now and July 2nd can’t come round fast enough”
