Hernando, Mississippi; 24, November 2014: Born in Mississippi, musician and vocalist Ross Lewis first began playing the guitar at age nine. Like many budding musicians, Lewis began impressing listeners at various social events around his hometown before joining the US Air Force. Stationed in New Jersey, he began playing various nightclubs in the greater New Jersey area and quickly became regarded as one of the city’s top nightclub performers. After leaving the Air Force, Lewis formed his own band and began touring the entire Northeast and fulfilling his lifelong passion for entertaining others.

Throughout his career, Lewis gained national recognition for his 1980′s country song “Love in Motion”, which reached #48 on the Billboard Charts and #1 on various national independent charts. Establishing himself as a noteworthy country and jazz performer, he made several guest appearances in artistic hotspots around the country including the Nashville Network and iconic Las Vegas venues.

A native of a small town near Boston, Buzz Evans also began performing at an early age, and over the years established himself as one of the world’s premier pedal steel guitarists. Highly respected by former musicians, his unique blend of multiple genres including blues, R&B, soul, blues, and pop, Buzz Evans is a recent inductee of the Massachusetts Country Music Hall of Fame. Refusing to limit his playing to one vein of music, the creative flow of Evans gives listeners a diverse experience cultivated by a music career spanning many years and drawing from numerous cultures.

Some say that it is only natural that Lewis and Evans met and began creating their unique brand of blues influenced country music. The two have been working together for the past 10 years, and listeners can finally hear the meticulously crafted, well-engineered album that is “Candle Light Country”. Each track, which is written by Lewis and engineered by Evans, features brilliant vocal harmonies and an experience that the two describe as “smooth traditional country”. For Lewis and Evans, the journey is just beginning. The two plan to tour the US and release one to two albums per year in the near future.

Available on CD Baby, Amazon, iTunes, and Google Music, “Candle Light Country” is a brilliant depiction of two seasoned musicians at the height of their career. Drawing from their diverse backgrounds and love of music, Lewis and Evans have created a listening experience that appeals to lovers of all musical genres, and that has the ability to inspire people of all ages and cultures.
