Jody Evans
AGE: 28
HOMETOWN/CURRENTLY RESIDES: Donaldson, Arkansas
BIO: Currently a police officer in Arkadelphia, Arkansas, Jody has honed his own style of retro rockabilly music. Growing up in Arkansas he was rocked to sleep to the music of Elvis Presley, and as a child he wanted to BE Elvis - While his friends wore rumpled jeans and T-shirts, Jody sported impeccably tailored suits and glasses. As a young teen he saved up money to buy his first guitar, a 1966 Fender Mustang, and quickly learned all the chords necessary to play every Buddy Holly song. His other musical influences include Hank Williams, Sr. and Marshall Crenshaw.
