Everything But The Everything is the one-man project of the Bay Area music veteran Izzy The Gent who has been producing alternative new wave post punk out of East Oakland. Everything But The Everything started as a solo project before becoming a studio collaborative. Performing live was the next step. When performing live Everything But The Everything longtime collaborators, vocalists Sophia Prise and Tobias Hawkins front the band while guitarist Ian Dowd (Fire In The Hamptons), drummer Chad Roxxit (The Hot Takes, Chad and Scott) and Izzy handle the rest. In the studio: Landon Cisneros (Spirit Mother, Zodiac Death Valley) has had our backs with drums for a minute. Moog magician extraordinaire, Andrew Gomez (NRVS LVRS) has also been in our corner. Rex Shelverton (Bellavista, VUE) is our unofficial member and studio producer.
Sophia Prise is a singer-songwriter-producer hailing from Portland, Oregon and currently living in Oakland, California. Prise began teaching herself electronic music production on the side while completing her Master of Music at San Francisco Conservatory.
