Evan Sass

Evan played trumpet in the Awesome Eagle Show Band from 1983-1987. He went on to march in the Oregon Marching Band at the University of Oregon. His kids carried on the tradition in their high school marching band, on piccolo and sousaphone. These days Evan lives north of Seattle, building and managing web sites (including this one), and dabbling in euphonium. He helps his better half, Rona, run Brassapalooza brass music camp and Northwest Brass Choir.
