Captured by Evan's friend Bailey Stone Barnard (aka Barney) on handheld HD cameras from 2008 to 2011 (before HD cameras were a ubiquitous feature in every cell phone), this video tribute features footage from Evan's time in Los Angeles playing shows at small venues with his band, whose members included (in various ensembles) Adam Stehr, Andrew Morehart, Tom Mitchell, Ryan Hailey, Justin David, Moss Seros, and Matt Saba. For one particular show, at Harvelle's in Santa Monica on March 21, 2011, Barney set up two cameras on tripods and recorded the entire set, which included the band's first live performance of "Saturday Fire" from Evan's album Tree Party.  ​

The song muses on Evan's and his friends' struggle during that period to make any remarkable impression with the young ladies they met at bars, while nonetheless enjoying some of the best years of their lives. This video tribute, edited by Barney after all these years of rumination, provides a genuine (albeit fleeting) reminiscence of Evan's lyrical storytelling, his playful outlook on otherwise bleak situations, his captivating and magnetic charm, and his trademark smirk—which lingers both beautifully and painfully in this video and in our memory. Evan was a beloved friend and these five years without him—as of May 28, 2024, five years after his passing—remind us the void he left behind and how lucky we are to have been graced with such a singular presence in our lives.
