Steve Evetts has been an active producer since 1992, producing mostly metal albums, as well as indie and emo bands.

Evetts has also engaged in music-production education. He taught an online CreativeLive class in collaboration with Ben Weinman of The Dillinger Escape Plan.

Evetts has also appeared as a guest instructor on the Nail the Mix platform, where he provided a detailed mix walkthrough for a song by The Dillinger Escape Plan.

Evetts' recording studio was completely destroyed in May 2026 as the result of a structure fire that occurred at its location. He posted video of the incident to social media, where he explained that the floor collapsed, plunging "the entire contents of [his] studio into the burning pit below." A GoFundMe was established, receiving donations from members of the Wonder Years and Bad Religion.
