Title: Who is George Evans?
George Evans is a three time National Jazz Awards Canada nominee as “Male Vocalist of the Year” or “Vocalist of the Year,” has twice been nominated for a MAC Award, and was nominated Ontario Independent Music Awards “Jazz Artist of the Year.”

Recognized as one of the foremost vocal interpreters of jazz and standards on the Canadian scene since surfacing in Montreal in the early-1990s, George Evans has been celebrated diversely as "a ballad's best friend" by the All-Canadian Jazz Festival, and "an agile voice and always swinging" by the National Post. George tours actively and has been praised for lively, polished performances in major clubs in cities such as New York, Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, and Shanghai. Since 1997 has released a total of seven CDs as a leader plus a ballad compilation. The current album, "LIVE at the Cellar" has been heard on jazz outlets on five continents.
 
George Evans first thrilled Toronto jazz audiences in 1999 when he launched his second album "I'm All Smiles" at the Top o' the Senator. Evans went on to appear there with regularity through the launch of his fifth album "Movie Songs' in 2005. George became increasingly familiar to audiences at home through frequent appearances on TVO, Bravo, and CoolTV, as well as through numerous sessions and concerts for the CBC. Evans founded an act known as The Three Crooners to promote the successful "Here Come The Boys: a Canadian Crooner Collection" for Maximum Jazz / Universal Music Canada, an original compilation he selected and sequenced, as well as produced.
