Guy Randolph Evans is an English progressive rock drummer, percussionist and composer, and a member of Van der Graaf Generator.

Whilst at the University of Warwick, Evans played in the university band which was called The New Economic Model. The band, which mainly played American soul music of the 1960s, played at all the university dances and supported bands such as Pink Floyd and The Move.

In addition to his work in Van der Graaf Generator, Evans has collaborated with other musicians, frequently with other members of Van der Graaf Generator, as on The Long Hello project and in the K Group. He also works with a group called Echo City constructing "sonic playgrounds", outdoor constructions which can be used to make music, many for disabled children. He has been the drummer in Subterraneans since 2002.
