By Bradley William Kuhns

Brad Evans has been an entertainer for over 50 years. Brad and his group, the "Encores" made a unique sound that crossed racial, ethnic and cultural lines. Starting with Brad's humble beginnings growing up in a small coal mining town in Pitt Gas, Pennsylvania to rolling with the famous "Rat Pack", as a musician sideman, Brad lived in an adult Disneyland, a world where partying, booze, super fine ladies and big money was the norm in the raucous 50s, 60s and 70s. He crossed paths with the mob and rubbed shoulders and became friends with some of America's biggest stars like, Elvis, The Rat Pack, Nat King Cole, Frankie Laine, Phyllis Diller and many other celebrities of the day. He was popular, in demand, and was asked to perform with headliners. Brad was a shy and polite person who accepted the entertainment business in stride.

Brad and his groups on- stage presence made him somewhat of a Vegas nightclub staple. A perennial bachelor and involved with numerous women during his music career, Brad had many colorful relationships.
