So how did the Evilsons get started and who does what?
Tom: Well we have known each other for a long, long time and we actually started jamming together quite a few years ago. Then we took a brake and started playing as Evilsons in the year 2001. We never in advance thought out what kind of music we wanted to play….we listened to a lot of punk, ska and reggae and I guess our music is just a mixture of the styles of music we like. Patu plays the bas, Mikke the guitar, I (Tom) beats the drums and Fredi sings. The songs are composed mostly by Mikke, and the lyrics written by Fredi.
