In 2021 Melbourne born, University of New England Educated smooth jazz recording artist Evan Carydakis released the soulful and rhythmic EP, Groove House. Jazz World Monthly described Groove House as a “A fiery, funky, hard-edged yet ultra-melodic romp that draws from a great family upbringing where the kids all grew up listening to jazz, pop, rock, and R&B.”

Evans’ 2022 single “Movin On” reached #42 on the Radio Wave Top 100 Album Chart, #54 on the Smooth Jazz Top 100 Album Chart and #17 on the Smooth Jazz Radar Chart cementing Evan as a global TOP 50 Smooth Jazz Artist.
