Bio / Background

For Kevin McGowan, music follows the natural flow of his life. This longtime commitment is revealed in his two full-length CD releases, When I was a Young Man and Our Life. From the crisp downbeat that introduces the bubbly lead-off track "Neurotic," from "When I Was a Young Man," to the last lingering strains of "The Love That I Live," from "Our Life," McGowan's clarion tenor voice, surrounded by crystalline guitars, violin, pedal steel and choruses of shimmering harmonies (performed by McGowan), eloquently renders evocative, captivating narratives of heart, soul and sound.

As a songwriter, Kevin breathes life into his characters. "The title cut, 'When I was a Young Man,' is not my story," he explains. "It's an observation on families -- not my family -- and how hard it is to break the chain of dysfunction through the generations." Similarly, "Wanna Be a Good Man" depicts the rigors of a truck driver's life, but Kevin doesn't drive a big rig.
