Kevin’s vocals are soft-spoken, with a Bob Dylan-esque storyteller’s rasp, a bit of a Randy Newman-ish larger-than-lifeness at times, all while still being restrained and subtle, and delivered with a folk-country cadence…. a down-to-earth telling of everyday tales, an everyman’s exhibition of extraordinary songwriting.
