Biography

“Boho Chapeau” is the music of singer/songwriter Kevin Quinn.

A native of Los Angeles, Kevin has taken the multi-cultural aspects of growing up in Southern California and crafted them into colorful vignettes of the American Experience.

He defines Boho Chapeau as, “100% pure vibe”.

His songs are akin to dreams. Some are poignant, some surreal and puzzling. Others are downright silly but they’re all fueled by genuine heartfelt emotion. They cover a full range of life’s experiences from the dark and desperate moments of isolation, to the lightness and intimacy of true love.

The sound is earthy and natural with an artsy edge, and always comfortably performed with what Quinn calls, “perfect imperfection”. “It’s like an old hat that just fits”.
