Kevin Morgan is composed of lead singer/lead guitarist/lead songwriter Kevin Morgan. He finds himself pretentious enough to name his music entity after himself. How creative.
However, on the occasion he is in the Pacific Northwest, he hooks up with Jonathan Nicholson, whose lead guitar work is heard on Kev's first ever CD, "Dimestore Sagas EP", released by Kevin Morgan Music. (Jonathan's work can be heard on myspace.com/JonathanNicholson)

Neye Benziyor?
Johnny Cash meets Duncan Sheik who roomed with Beck but hung out with Bob Dylan, who shot pool with Bruce Springsteen, played poker with Kris Kristofferson, who tossed a few back with the Crash Test Dummies, at a party which Tom Waits crashes, and then Marty Robbins bails 'em all out of jail.

BIO:
I was raised in Chewelah, a small rural town north of Spokane, Washington in the vale of the Selkirk mountains. I spent the last several years in Spokane, having more time in the laid-back pace of the big-small town to work on the craft of singing and songwriting. My latest journey has brought me to Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Guideposts to the direction of my songs are musicians and songwriters like Tom Waits, Jimmy Webb, Kris Kristofferson, Mark Lanegan, Radiohead, and Johnny Cash, of whom my voice is incessantly compared to--I got the low pipes from my padre : ). I aim for writing songs like poetry, rich in imagery & colorful phrasing, and hopefully every song is in distinction from the next.
"Dimestore Sagas" is my first CD made available which is available for purchase from the links below, and gosh-darnit, I'd love it if you could support the music! But even if not, I hope you will look forward to updates on how my music and career are progressing.
Just stopped in to say hi. I hope to see you playing around this fall. I've been busy all summer (thank God it's over) but plan to get back out playing. Talk to ya soon.
Thank you for your kind words Mr. Kevin, I am currently overseas and everything taste like one sort of chick pea or another. Have good luck and good times with your music in the coming months. I look forward, with a wide smile, to the next time our paths cross.
Dude, it looks like you've been busy traveling and playing music, too!!! That's awesome, man! Your great sound needs to be heard! And CONGRATS on radio play as well (way to go Rachel!)!!!
So, 'tis true, the band and I are planning on making our way through Albuquerque in October and it would be amazing to stay with you and Rachel for an evening, if that's cool with you guys. There'd be 4 of us.
You rock, good sir, and I pray you never stop the rockin'!!!
so i'm driving in south valley today listening to kunm, and suddenly, yeah, i know this intro and it's you! the dj thanked your sweet wife for sending him the ep. it sounded great again. hope you had a good trip home from the 4 Corners!

so good to hear u play. thx for the cd, hasnt left my player. ive missed your sweet n sultry sounds in my ears.. the record is nothing short of amazing
Thanks for the phone call the other day, man! Unfortunately, the reception cut out on your voice mail and I couldn't tell what you were saying. Maybe you were inviting me to play Parcheesi, or perhaps to tell me that you've won the lotto (sweet! share with me??!), or maybe to tell me you've talked with my doctor recently and I only have a few months left to live.
Heh, at any rate, I got your message, friend. :)
We'll talk soon! In the meantime, I hope you and Rachel have a wonderful Christmas!!!
