About Eve 6

Eve 6 is a rock band originally from Southern California, consisting of three members; Max Collins (vocalist/bassist), Jon Siebels (guitarist), and Tony Fagenson (drummer). The group formed in high school, became active in the music scene until their first success in the late 90s, and subsequently recorded four studio albums.

Their debut single “Inside Out” became a hit, reaching #28 on the US Billboard Hot 100, as well as number 1 on Mainstream Rock Radio and Modern Rock Radio. The music video for “Inside Out” was directed by actor-director and Charlie’s Angels star McG and reached heavy rotation on MTV. At the time, Eve 6 was signed to RCA Records.

In 2000, their second album “Horoscope” was released, spawning the hit single “Here’s to the Night”. This power ballad peaked at #30 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and reached #1 on the Adult Top 40 chart. The band continued to tour and record, releasing two more albums “It’s All in Your Head” in 2003, and “Speak in Code” in 2012.

Interestingly, in 2004 due to creative differences, Max Collins decided to leave the band and pursue a solo career. The group did not disband, but rather substituted Collins with new members for the next few years. In 2007, the original lineup reunited and toured together. In 2011, the band signed to Fearless Records and released “Speak in Code” with all the original members back in the band.

Eve 6 has proven to be a band that has stood the test of time, with their music continuing to be loved by new and old fans alike. They have a unique sound that is different from any other alternative rock band out there. Their lyrics are raw and introspective and their melodies are infectious and memorable.

From their early days of playing in local California bars to selling out national and international tours and festivals, Eve 6 has made their mark on the world of alternative rock and will continue to be remembered for their contribution to the genre.

Eve 6, without a doubt, has secured a place in the hearts of many rock music listeners, and will always be remembered for their alternative rock music, their catchy melodies, and insightful lyrics.
