For two decades prior, he laid the groundwork to manifest such a future.

Born and raised in Abbotsford, BC Canada, Konrad vividly recalls watching old VHS tapes of his mom performing on the road, while his dad served as front-of-house engineer and videographer. Catching Rush live as his first concert, alongside his father proved nothing short of revelatory. With new dreams of being a production designer, Evan would collect lights from Radio Shack, and would host concerts at home, entertaining the entire neighbourhood. As a child, he fell asleep to Mozart, fostering this passion for music at all hours. Growing up, he then learned piano before picking up drums and guitar. Being homeschooled, he maximized his time remaining immersed in creation.

By the age of twenty, Konrad formally launched a career in music under his project Bed of Stars. Following stints writing, producing, and recording with and on the road as a touring musician with other artists, Bed of Stars entered the 2015 Peak Performance Project in Vancouver and by 26 he sequestered himself in the studio for his own project, with just a few collaborators rotating in and out. He commenced work on fashioning a sound of his own.
