Evens Gregoire – biography

Talented. Gifted. Anointed. These are the words that describe up and coming singer, songwriter, and musician Evens Gregoire. A promising, and truly humble character, it is no wonder that he has already won the hearts of everyone in the congregation, when and where ever he ministers. People from all nations and backgrounds are moved by this young Haitian artist’s powerful songs, which speak to the heart in ALL languages.

Born in Cavaillion, Haiti and raised in the nation’s capital of Port-au-Prince, Evens grew up in the well-known, musically-oriented church, Smyrna. From a young age, he began to write music, sing, and play the guitar. He was a part of two popular Haitian groups, Shenatsar & Angel’s Family. Since then, he has represented his native country throughout the world in countries such as Jamaica, the United States, and various countries in Africa.
At the age of 17, he was dubbed “the Haitian Garou” by native fans; a reference to Canadian singing icon, Garou, who marvelled fans in 2001 with his hit song, “Sous Le Vent”, a duet with Celion Dion.

After winning the first place prize for best vocals in the rock section of the World Championship of Performing Arts competition, held in Hollywood, CA, Evens went on to record and release his debut album, “Sel Opsyon An”. This album is an anointed, up-tempo rock/pop album which combines acoustic components with aggressive, energized rock fills. From the very first song, it is clear that Evens has a strong voice that effectively conveys his distinct message, which is: Jesus Christ is The Only Option. Skillfully produced by Rev. James Destine, engineered by Herman Bellenton, and mixed by Taylor Barefoot, this album is one for the generations. Evens writes and co-writes powerful lyrics with entrancing melodies.

Recently, Evens’ hard work was recognized by the Royal Soul Production company. At the 1st Annual Angelic Awards, which was held in Boston, Ma, Evens’ debut album was dubbed 2012’s Album of the Year! He was also featured on The Entertainer’s Show, where he did an exclusive interview about his ministry, and performed for a local television network in Somerville, Ma. Surely, this is an artist unlike any other!
