Hello everyone! This week on Deep Cuts, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Evan Draper! Guitarist for Florida metalcore band Grieve and cinematographer behind the upcoming horror film It Ends. Which I had the chance to see and it’s amazing.
We talked about Grieve’s newest releases, “It Followed Me Home” and their cover of Flyleaf’s “I’m So Sick,” as well as Evan’s journey balancing music and filmmaking. We also dove into It Ends, one of the year’s most anticipated horror films (100% on rotten tomatoes btw), hitting theaters August 21 through Neon.
It was an awesome conversation about creativity, horror, heavy music, and chasing your passion. Huge thanks to Evan for taking the time to come on the show!
