Dear friends,
Kevin is all "keyed-up", putting the finishing touches on his brand new album, "Havana Winter", set for release on July 7 in Canada (July 28 in the USA). Produced by Michael Phillip Wojewoda, the album was recorded at Canterbury Studios in Toronto with his band, Thinbuckle, with a guest performance by Lou Reed on guitar. Kevin has been playing in Lou's band for the last two years . Don't miss seeing Kevin playing with Lou at Lollapalooza in Chicago on August 9th. Other guest performances include Laurie Anderson, Mary Margaret O'Hara, and Chantal Kreviazuk. The end result is seven beautifully crafted pieces, reminiscent of Lambchop and acoustic-synth Flaming Lips. You can get a sneak peek of one or two songs from the new album on June 18 at Lee's Palace, where Kevin performs alongside friends such as Jim Cuddy and Jenn Grant at the Outlaws & Gunslingers NXNE showcase. In July, he teams up with his band, Thinbuckle, for some dates in the USA and Canada (see below).
And if you can't wait that long to see Kevin's skills unleashed, he'll be playing a song with Lou Reed and Elvis Costello on this weeks episode of Elvis' show, Spectacle. Check your local CTV listings for details.
