Music
“For me, music is all about emotion. It’s about the connection between the musician and the listener. It’s a two-way thing.”
– Don McKevitt
Songs about politics, life, love and mortality … songs for those who listen, feel, connect, think and care … from the heart, head, and soul … delivered with emotion and lyrical diversity … using voice, guitars, piano, keyboards and drums.
