ABOUT

For Galveston, Texas based musician, Kevin Anthony, whose musical life experience has brought him from Galveston, Texas, up to Houston, would bring him even farther north to New York City in 1993 and then jetted him to Minneapolis where he made his home since 2005. In December of 2010 Kevin returned to his home in Galveston, Texas to set up his music operations for SE Texas.


He’s been performing his unique sound which he calls “Gulf Coast” all throughout Texas, Louisiana with his band called G-Town as well as trips to the mid-west to Wisconsin & Minnesota where he performs with his country/Cajun band, The Twin City Playboys.


On his 2010 North Star album, his eleven-track effort, four songs see reminders of what he brought to his partnership with the Twin City Playboys and the brand new songs fit in beautifully, in addition to bringing a new sound into the fold. Anthony’s smooth voice comes through brilliantly – it’s soulful, warm and lovely, and throughout the record shows not only that he is a gifted singer, but an incredibly talented, straightforward lyricist.


And it’s no secret that for a musician, a lot of what you do and who you are comes from where you’ve been. And all those experiences that get you to where you are now bring you to find out what sound you love most.


In May of 2011, Kevin released “Old Time Cajun Music” with his Minneapolis based Twin City Playboys. This marks the first all Cajun release and the 4th release on his 409 Recordings label based in Galveston. “Old Time Cajun Music” is the winner of the Cajun French Music Association’s (CFMA) Prix Dehors de Nous Award for 2012.


Kevin is currently writing and recording material for two new albums scheduled to be completed by the end of 2012.
