Evan James Woods

I got going with drums back in middle school, joining the school bands and eventually meeting current Rarity guitarist Adam Clarke. I must have been drumming 7 days a week between high school jazz band and covering metal songs in my basement with my friends. I was going to local shows every weekend and it was at those shows that I met the 3 other guys that would become Rarity! Vic Firth just became an extension of my arm. I've been playing them as far back I can remember; jazz band, starting Rarity, flash forward to touring North America and Europe/UK. I always gravitate to that signature feel and iconic logo.
