Hank Vegas

Hank Vegas was the alter ego of singer, guitarist, and songwriter Chad Evans, who fronted an alt-country clothing billed seeing that Hank Vegas & the Light Lightning. Produced in Macon, GA, the music group slowly advanced from its country-rock origins into a even more R.E.M.-like jangle pop incarnation, however, and emerged as simply Hank Vegas using the release from the impressive THE ITEMS You Are in 2007 in Star Motel Records. The existing membership contains frontman Chad Evans on electric guitar and business lead vocals; Rob Evans on electric guitar and support vocals; Justin Smith on bass, keyboards, and periodic percussion; and John Neff on pedal metal. David Barbe, who created THE ITEMS You Are in his Chase Recreation area Transduction studio room in Athens, GA, also added percussion, keyboards, and electric guitar towards the debut release.
