Evan Rodaniche is the guitarist, lead singer and mastermind behind Cage9. Born and raised in Panama, Evan picked up his first electric guitar at 14 after being exposed to the brutal riffage of Metallica's “And Justice for All”. Cage9 has won many awards in Panama's annual PanamaRock Event and is considered by many local rockers to be the country's most promising heavy-rock export.
He also served as lead axe-man in Powerman 5000 (as Evan9), touring (with Cage9 too) everywhere from Japan, Central America, Europe and the US and shared stages with artists such as Korn, Ozzy Osbourne, Danzig, Drowning Pool, Black Label Society, Mudvayne, Judas Priest, and Cheap Trick to name a few.
An accomplished songwriter and musician, Evan's also produced and mixed albums for countless bands including Powerman 5000's LP “Somewhere on the Other Side of Nowhere”, Boy Hits Car, Great Gods of Greed (feat. Mike Clark of Suicidal Tendencies), The Willowz as well as many other video game, TV and movie soundtracks.
