This Athens, GA native is a compelling blend of talent, skill and persona. A Berklee College of Music alumni, Kevin uses his years of experience to full advantage and now operates his own production and publishing company, Try Em' (BMI). But it's still the craft of songwriting and performing that remains his true passion. He is currently being heard on Myradio.com and iTunes. Whether he's playing a small quiet club, a loud outdoor festival or even leading his church's contemporary worship services, Kevin is exciting to watch and captivating to hear. Listeners say with each song he takes you on a journey and touches your heart and soul. "It's not just about excitement," says Kevin. "That's the easy part. What I find challenging and ultimately called to do is to reach deep within myself and lay it all out as honestly as I can. If I can connect with my audience on that level, then I'm tapping into something more spiritual, not just manipulating emotions. I want them to leave them feeling better . . . about love, life and themselves."
