Details:
The sophomore album is a tricky one. Some artists struggle to capture the excitement surrounding their first record. Others build, learn, and grow. The Evening Rig is the latter.
The Evening Rig was formed in Minneapolis in 2005 by singer/guitarist Jason Miller, drummer Becky Hanten, and bassist Jake Jarpey. Lead guitarist Josh Lynch was added to the fold during the summer of 2006.
Over the next year and a half, The Evening Rig built a devoted local fan-base with their beer-soaked and unmistakable Minneapolis sound. To much fanfare, their debut album Never Been''er was released by Heart of a Champion in January 2008. From national magazines like Alternative Press to local newspapers like City Pages and the Minneapolis Star Tribune, the reviews were positively glowing.
Minneapolis music icon Peter Jesperson (former co-owner of Twin/Tone Records and manager of The Replacements, currently the vice president of New West Records in Los Angeles) was one of the band''s early advocates:
As successful as Never Been''er was, one listen to Is Doin'' Stuff makes it very clear that The Evening Rig is a better band now than they were a year ago. From the musicianship to the lyrics, each aspect of The Evening Rig is sharper and more confident.
