Kevin Gibson is a modern troubadour, who combines the skills of a master story teller with those of a consumate musician.
His deep and rough vocals carry a subtle energy that match the pulse of the music and compliment his haunting lyrics.
His unique blend of modern classical ( a la Mussorsky?) and traditional celtic is seamless and creates varied effects, from the dissonance of a troubled mind through haunted merry-go-rounds to sad lullabies.
Gibson's first album" Angel in an Ugly Place," was a concept album and was released in the fall of 2000. Shortly before this album was released Kevin, and his bandmates, grieved the death of fellow pianist and friend Kym Drake. Since then Gibson has remained songless; until now.
Gibson is in the process of recording his second album, "Torn Down," and estimates it's completion by summer 2006.
I will definately give it a listen... Im up for anything along those lines and you seem really interesting. The only problem is... I got this amazing offer to check out some new music but Im stuck in the Boondocks so I wont be able to until I return to the city tomorrow. :) Thanks alot for the message, you take care and I'll give you my honest opinion when I get to hear it tomorrow.
