SXSW 2024: Evan Honer

 Luck Reunion. According to his website:

Evan Honer is a songwriter originally from Surprise, Arizona. Influenced by esteemed artists like Jason Isbell, Tyler Childers, and Colter Wall, Evan has masterfully crafted a captivating blend of modern outlaw country, indie folk, and pop sensibilities. Despite only being 22 years old, Evan has garnered an impressive 50 million+ streams across platforms and currently is in the midst of recording of a highly anticipated new album and will be extensively touring as a 100% independent artist.

Here he is playing Tyler Childers' "Jersey Giant". Nice. 

"Mr. Myers" is a tear-jerker. Get out the tissues. The others songs I heard are equally as depressing. ("All I Ask" and "Brother") Here is one exception.
