Welcome to Episode 35 of Tapestry, where Evan Carson (composer of my album of the year in 2019!) allowed me to pick his brain about being a professional percussionist. We discuss his epic genre-bending debut album Ocipinski, which retraces his grandfather’s journey across Europe and involvement with the Polish resistance movement during World War II, the differences in his practice routines and habits when he’s playing and touring with Russian progressive rock duo iamthemorning, versus touring and playing festivals across the UK with award-winning British folk act Sam Kelly and the Lost Boys, and on overcoming imposter syndrome, the misconception that percussionists can’t compose, and working toward his strengths as a musician.📷: Miles SkarinStay up to date on all Evan’s projects here: https://www.facebook.com/evancarsondrums/ https://evancarsondrums.bandcamp.com/releases https://www.evancarsondrums.com/Instagram: @evancarsondrumsI also want to wholeheartedly thank Stephen Forristal, who was already networking with Evan and passed along my information to him, which led to this interview!

Episode 35 | Evan Carson

Evan Carson is a world-class percussionist and highly sought-after bodhran session player who is best known in this corner of the musical world as go-to percussionist and live drummer for iamthemorning with Marjana Semkina and Gleb Kolyadin. After a successful crowdfunding campaign in summer 2018, Carson is releasing his debut solo album on July 1st, 2019, an artistic storytelling of his grandfather as a young man separated from his family in World War II Poland, entitled Ocipinski. The album is an ongoing folk/prog musical/art collaboration inspired by Evan‘s grandfather Jerzy Ocipinski and other members of the Polish Resistance during the Second World War. Jerzy‘s journey from Poland through Europe and eventually to England has always been a mystery and something rarely spoken of in Evan‘s family, but upon his death in December 2016, it became clear that there was far more to his story than he ever told them. Ocipinski is an ongoing music effort to fill in the gaps and tell the story of Evan‘s grandfather and so many like him. With the help of his Polish family doing some serious historical digging, Evan now has the first part of his grandfather’s journey mapped out. “Ocipiñski” Album Artwork Sonic Perspectives writer and interviewer Austin Kokel spent part of a recent Saturday catching up with Evan Carson to talk about the album, everything that went into it, and who contributed to its production, as well as discussing their parallel family histories from the 20th century. Listen to the interview below, or subscribe to our podcasts however you listen to podcasts for this interview, Talking Perspectives episodes, and more.
