Evan McCaskey was an American guitarist who played for the bands Exodus and Blind Illusion.
Evan grew up in Point Richmond, California. Prior to joining the band Blind Illusion, he taught guitar lessons in his Point Richmond studio. It was not at all uncommon to see Evan riding past the Richmond Plunge or the Santa Fe Market on the back of a Vespa motorscooter holding two or three guitar cases. He committed suicide on September 28, 1989 at the age of 24. Many of his friends question the suicide.
