Prior to ''Nashville Star'', Evans had written a song titled Sittin Pretty , which was recorded by country music legend Dwight Yoakam . Jody Evans electric style of music is such that the crowds can't help but get up and dance when he is on stage performing. Jody's talents are currently being showcased on tour with the 2005 Nashville Star tour that wraps up in September. PERSONAL LIFE Evans grew up in the community of Donaldson, Arkansas. He started his own Band at a young age, and although dreams of becoming a successful Musician never left his mind, he also aspired to be a police officer. His first duties in Law Enforcement were as a police Dispatcher with the Arkadelphia Police Department , in Clark County, Arkansas , and he worked part time with the Hot Spring County, Arkansas Sheriff's Department. Evans never made it a secret that he was heavily influenced by local police officers, whom he often looked on as bigger than life. When two police officer friends of his, who locally were relatively well known for their police Exploits , left local law enforcement to serve overseas with the International Police , Evans was quoted as saying "It's guys like that who are heroes. I just entertain, and hope people like what they hear when I do". Evans is known by friends as being quite shy. Likeable and quiet, Evans was never shy however when it came to breaking out a guitar and putting on a musical show for friends. Friends say his down home country attitude makes him an easy person to like, a feeling reflected in the reaction of fans during his ''Nashville Star'' run. Evans is also well known for giving back to the community which supported him before stardom, and he participates in Clark County and Hot Spring County benefits at every opportunity. EXTERNAL LINKS |
