About this listen
Evolution Device, a novel of music and magic in classic rock's 1970s.
A guitarist fighting his power. A muse who's losing her power. And a guitar whose power may be not what it seems.
Evolution Device is an entertaining mix of backstage drama and spiritual fantasy, imagining a quintessential 1970s rock 'n' roll success story from the not-quite-real perspective of an artistic muse who makes the music possible.
Taking off from a fictionalized amalgam of Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, and Heart, mixed with a bit of Janis Joplin and a dash of the Jefferson Airplane, Lif Strand introduces an unusual (but refreshingly original) angle of Native American mythology into the more familiar behind-the-music elements.
The result is a credible account of rock stardom that depicts the most idealized visions of the audience, as though they were as real as the all too human affairs of the performers themselves - with an original subtext reflecting on the meaning of musical inspiration and the deepest sources of musical creativity.
Crafted with the passion of a true fan, Evolution Device is as unique as a 1959 Les Paul and authentic as a Stratocaster solo.
