“Harold from Harold and the Purple Crayon, Max from Where the Wild Things Are, and Jack from Puff the Magic Dragon. They are older and their fantasy lives have taken turns for the worse.”

Evan Hammer - Harold Called This Morning (f. Ariel Levine)

Offstage, Evan Hammer has made a name for himself as a songwriter, crafting his tunes while isolated within his Brooklyn piano room during marathon songwriting sessions. His eclectic indie album, Bright Day for a Frog’s Rebellion, integrates both Killers fever and Elliott Smith resignation, with a strong connection to expressive Bowie-esque melodies and driving Kings of Leon motion. Onstage, Hammer is a barefoot dancing, riotous bass player, who has spent the last few months traveling around the northeast with his band, Big Mosey.

Bury Me A Lion - The Glistening Girls

Big Mosey commands a collection of unhinged emotions, surreal stories, and exposed moments. This Brooklyn rock band’s dirty grooving tunes nod to southern influences like Kings of Leon and grunge groups like Pearl Jam, yet ache and growl in the vein of Howlin' Wolf or Tom Waits – delirious and victorious. With performances from New York (Figment Festival, Arlene’s Grocery) to Boston (The Cantab Lounge, Wadzilla Mansion), Big Mosey has developed a raucous live show, which they have channeled into their debut EP, Homeward At Daybreak, co-produced with Jeremy Sklarsky (Freelance Whales). 

Big Mosey - The Blue Skies Are Over

Songwriter. Bass player. Jupiterian skyscrapers. Bright Day for a Frog's Rebellion. Once upon a time: Big Mosey, Bury Me a Lion.
