It is an exciting time to be a Sydney local, jazz sensation Evan Carydakis is coming to town! “Featuring the smooth jazz grooves of US chart-topping saxophonist Evan Carydakis and his band performing all his hits, including his current smash hit ‘Cherry Pops’ – Live and Funky” at Lazybones Lounge on the 11^{th of} October and Foundry616 on the 12^th.

The performances are set to bring melody infused joy to all that attend, but don’t just take my word for it, Jazz World Monthly described Evan’s recent release as “a fiery, funky, hard-edged yet ultra-melodic romp that draws from a great family upbringing where the kids all grew up listening to jazz, pop, rock and R&B.” An insight into the emotions, sensations, and feelings you will walk away with from his performances this October.

Evan’s new Chery Pops release – ranked #6 on the Smooth Jazz Global Chart -is produced by Emmy nominated pianist, film composer and producer Michael Whittaker, it is co-produced by Stephan Carydakis and features Adam McPhail on Guitar and Petar Janjic on Drums. Together they have “laid an incredible foundation in the genre and are set to become a major force in smooth jazz in the coming years!”
