BIOGRAPHY

//// After a painful handful of months mid-2005 (which we'll call "A Major Hiatus" from his band Adios Esposito www.adiosesposito.com), Kevin set out to "keep on keepin on" by writing new songs in the basement, and performing them live in Denver; both solo, and with the support of Eli Thomas (co-member of Adios Esposito). ///// Landing in New York City in October of 2005, Kevin and Eli hoped to reform a new band with new personel, and rock-off any nearby socks. As of September '06, Pete Moses (of the Selfsame) has been coerced into playing drums with the aforementioned sock-rockers. ///// Elsewhere, Kevin performs solo in the subway, at the Sidewalk Cafe's Monday night anti-hootenanny, Bar4's open mic, and other seedy joints on a regular basis. He also writes about himself in the third person. Additionally, he asks any seriously interested New York investors to contact him about "donation" opportunities, or any plans to keep him alive through the winter. Finally, he encourages YOU to rock on. /////
