If anyone is wondering what the next “basement gem” to come out of Minnesota’s underbelly is going to sound like, they should probably talk to Berndt Evenson. The guitar-wielding gent responsible for Alluvion.
Evenson has been in various musical groups since he was a teenager. While playing numerous festivals and clubs in the surrounding Midwest, he was toiling with the sounds that would soon develop into what is now known as Alluvion. During April & May of 2017, Alluvion toured parts of Midwest, Mountain states, & Pacific Northwest – performing 30+ shows in over a dozen states. His latest release “The Deepest Depths of Shallow Waters”, is a whole new beginning for Alluvion in more ways than one. It is an impressive new turn and continues to show that Alluvion’s releases are anything but predictable.
The Alluvion concert experience features live midi tweaking, guitar & analogue ribbon improvisation, and heavily effect driven layered vocals. Evenson seems determined to assure audience members, that this isn’t typical EDM or basement rock; however, once you’ve seen or heard Alluvion, that becomes delightfully apparent.
