Greasy Chicken Review, From the Basement to the Ballroom

Five vocalists, a horn section, and one tower

Greasy Chicken Review is a high-energy rock band with a full horn section and five vocalists, and their rooms range from rehearsal spaces to their loudest club dates. The Electro-Voice EVOLVE 50 already covers the small nights and the bass rig. For front of house in the bigger rooms, the EVOLVE 70 is the level up.

The Artist

A loud band with rooms of every size

Rhees Williams plays bass in Greasy Chicken Review, a band that fills a stage before it fills a room: five vocalists, horns, guitars, and drums. Rehearsals and smaller shows already run on an EVOLVE 50, which doubles as his bass rig. The question was what happens when the calendar says club date.

“The EVOLVE 50's an amazing sound system for smaller shows, rehearsals, or even my bass rig. Then, when we play bigger rooms and need something more powerful for front of house, the EVOLVE 70 is a perfect level up.”

The Challenge

Carry a big band into a bigger room

The band's sound scales from rehearsal-space intimacy to club dates loud enough to test any rig. Front of house has to push five vocalists and a horn section at once, keep the full spectrum intact, and still load in and out like a portable system.

The Solution

Vocals and the house sound through one EVOLVE 70

At Eastside Bowl the band ran vocals and the house sound through the Electro-Voice EVOLVE 70, and it was just huge sounding. The 15 inch sub carries the low end without the weight, and the tower pushed out five vocalists and horns at once.

The Result

A loud band, and it still delivered

The full spectrum stayed intact, with the highs and mids that big rigs often lose, and power out of proportion to how easily the system travels. One family of systems now covers everything from rehearsal to the loudest night on the calendar. From the basement to the ballroom, EV is the sound for every stage.
