Bill Evans

Day 92
#12 – William John Evans, known as Bill Evans (1929–1980). American jazz pianist and composer. Albums include: Everybody Digs Bill Evans (1958), Waltz for Debby (1961) and Sunday at the Village Vanguard (Bill Evans Trio, 1961).

An elegant typeface for an elegant pianist. I kept the colours black and white to reflect the keys of the piano. Putting the names of some of his famous recordings helped add interest and broke up the letters.
