Evan Honer was still a college student in Southern California when his music — a mix of acoustic folk, indie-Americana, and alternative pop, delivered by a young songwriter who's never been afraid to blur the boundaries between genres — began earning a global audience. It happened fast. One minute, he was uploading performance videos to social media with little response. The next, he was a viral success, earning 100 million streams with his version of the Tyler Childers deep cut "Jersey Giant" and building a following with his original music, too.
On graduation day, Honer released West On I-10, a debut album that quickly led to collaborations with Liam St. John, Wyatt Flores, Vincent Mason, Hailey Whitters, Charles Wesley Godwin, and more, as well as months of sold-out headline shows across America and Europe.
For his sophomore album Fighting For, Honer decided to keep things simple. Turning down seven-figure offers from virtually every major label & grammy award winning producers, Fighting For was recorded by close friends in small studios, churches, Air Bnb's and living rooms and is being released by Evan's own independent label Cloverdale Records. With 500 million streams and counting and carving a new path in the music industry as a 100% independent artist, this is still just the beginning of Evan's journey.
