About
It’s all about the Music
Not by choice, the accordion was my first instrument. I "suffered" through about 3 years of learning and playing Polkas to various American Legion Women's gatherings, for a mere $1.00 (A Silver Dollar!)Per "performance". 3 years later I bought my first guitar (A Gibson Melody Maker) and started taking lessons. After a few years of lessons, my instructor told me that it was time to take off on my own. The words he said were, that if he kept teaching me, I would learn his style, and that is not what being a musician is all about. It was time to discover my own style. I do wish I could thank him now for his outlook.
I started writing my own material in my high school years. Although they weren't that good at the time, it did teach me to be creative and to always open your mind and soul to writing.
After years of playing local bars and such, it was time to give up that scene, and to set up my own Studio and start recording my Originals.
5 or 5,000 - Give it your Best!
Kevin's past Bands played mostly in the Bar Scene, as well as outdoor venues. Like many Bands, there were times when the Crowd would be rathe, sparse. It was times like that when you should play even harder, to give those that did come out, a Hell of a Show!
Never give up, Play a Good Show, and Soon, by word of mouth or by social Media, the word will get around! Bands that Truly enjoy what they are doing seem to draw the Best Crowds.
