Kevin Pauls

Kevin is the youngest of eight children, born into a musical family, as well as a christian family that hails from Hamilton, Ontario. He is eight years younger than his closest sibling, and has gleaned major benefits from growing up in a family where he was able to experience the cultures of two generations. As a result, Kevin spans the generational gap in musical style and appeal. Hymns and classic gospel songs make up the foundation of his musical heritage, giving rise to his second solo album Foundations, a collection of his favorite hymns re-arranged in modern style. That heritage also influenced his third album Simple, a creative and thoughtful piano-vocal offering that has appealed to audiences of all ages.

Kevin has toured with such artists as Michael English, Jonathan Martin, been a part of the Gaither Homecoming tour and will be featured in the brand new video being shot Septmber 24th in Toronto.
