In what is fast becoming a tradition at OOTB, Kevin is another 
performer who is over from Ireland for a little while, and will be
playing at some open mics in Edinburgh in the near future. 
He had an original, spacey sound, both in his guitar playing and in
his vocal, you got the feeling that the music was somehow
emanating from somewhere outside of Kevin himself. His first
song "I Think It's Time To Go" (actually called "Roughly 2a.m." 
- ed.) had some lovely discordances in it, and the lines 
"Reminds me of what I once told was right/I just don't know anymore" 
reflected the mood of melancholic searching very well. A very 
emotive, desperate-sounding vocal on his third song had him 
beseeching "I still love you so/Drinking through the night", and 
had him strumming furiously to show the emotional torment, and 
showed good use of dynamics too. Kevin's style is definitely worth 
checking out, he's not afraid to take a chance and experiment, 
which is something I like. Check out some of the other open mics in
August to hear him play.
