EVO (born Jacob William Wood) originates from Calgary, Alberta. In a city known for its country scene above all else, EVO has begun to pave a new path and create his own identity with his constantly evolving, genre-blending sound. With roots in rapping and edm production along with a childhood spent playing various instruments, EVO brings multiple layers to his music and is always looking for that next way to dive even deeper into this beautiful art form that we all love and know so well. The name “EVO” represents constant evolution, growth, and the change we all go through in our lives as humans. With lyrics centred around love, mental health, and motivation, there’s something for everyone in EVO’s catalog whether you’re looking to get deep in your feels, blast some energetic anthems in your headphones at the gym, or even just see the world in a slightly different way, through EVO’s lense. With early inspirations such as Juice Wrld, Logic, A Boogie, G-Eazy, Marshmello, The Kid Laroi, Witt Lowry, and more recent influence from the likes of Kid Cudi, Labrinth, N.F., Bryson Tiller, Brent Faiyaz, and Kendrick Lamar, EVO encapsulates a variety of different musical styles with his songs and is always aiming to create new waves in a constantly shifting music industry.
