John Evans recently released Polyester, his first in six years, via Houston’s Splice Records. Evans is playing a series of free in-store record store sets, which brings him back to Houston this Saturday (5.21.16) to perform songs from the album at Cactus Music.

The show starts at 1pm, and copies of Polyester will be available.

Evans’ has been a long-time favorite of Houstonians, earning eight straight years of Houston Press Music Awards (including six-time Best Male Vocalist, four-time Best Songwriter, two-time Musician of the Year, and Best Roots Rock Band) before his move to Austin a few years ago.

Here are some videos from Evans, including “Butterfly Girl,” which is also the title of a documentary film about his daughter, Abbie, who passed away from a rare skin disease in 2013, and was the inspiration for Polyester. You can read more in the Houston Chronicle, Houston Press, Free Press Houston, and Houstonia.
