He has performed live at venues such as The Honda Center, The Nokia Theater, Carnegie Hall, and many others all over the world from Australia, The UK, Germany, Austria, Canada, and the United States.
Heavily inspired from bands like Metallica, Nirvana, and pretty much anything playing on KROQ during the 90's, Kevin continued touring the world for several years with top-notch vocal groups performing at concerts, competitions, and festivals.
In 2007 he represented The United States with Mt. SAC Chamber Singers in Llangollen, Wales and won Luciano Pavarotti’s “Choir of the World” trophy at the world famous Eisteddfod competition. This was the first choir in over 60 years to win first place in all three categories and go on to win Choir of the World.
In 2009, Kevin became student director of Fermata Nowhere and helped take the group to the Lincoln Center in New York where they would win the International Championship of Collegiate A-capella.
Kevin has also received best vocal percussionist in quarter-finals, semi-finals, and finally received best rhythm section with Avi Kaplan in the finals and helped win Downbeat Magazine’s Best Collegiate Vocal Jazz ensemble numerous times with Singcopation.
Kevin is an incredibly gifted musician, educator, and all around nice guy. We're proud to have him on the team at Rockstars of Tomorrow La Verne.
