Album Notes

Kevin, along with his partner Brian Doherty, form the group Evans and Doherty and are in constant demand world wide. They have ten dedicated recordings to their credit as well as numerous compilations. The group Evans and Doherty have been described as "The greatest folk duo still performing in the world" by Gerry Taylor of the Telegraph Journal. When not touring with Evans and Doherty, Kevin works with high end Celtic performers such as Tommy Makem, Liam Clancy, Rita MacNeil, John McDerrmott, Ashley MacIsaac, The Fureys, Natalie MacMaster, The Irish Descendants, Dave MacIsaac, Foster and Allen, Great Big Sea and Phil Coulter both live and in the studio. He is a multi instrumentalist who has been described as a "Jack of all trades and a master of all" in the Boston Globe. As lead vocalist for the country-folk group, The Garrison Bros., his voice made the top ten six times in a three year period...four of those at #1! His smooth vocals have also been featured on numerous national T.V. and radio commercials for grocery superstores, oil and gas companies, pizza chains and tourism for at least four provinces. Kevin has enjoyed success as a song writer with covers by John McDermott, Tommy Makem and Liam Clancy, Sean Tyrrell, The Garrison Bros., Dave Craig, Colcannon, The Gamble Family, and, of course, Evans and Doherty. In 1998 Kevin's "Christmas Memories" achieved Platinum status for John McDermott. The song "Silver Sea" alone has been recorded over 30 times. As a record producer he has been in the studio with Liam Clancy, Rik Barron, Laura Smith, Roger Stone, Breton, Natalie MacMaster, Bruce Guthro, Connie and Paul, Anthony Risessco, Celtic Connection, Lisa MacDougall, Dave MacIsaac, Dave Stone, Richard Wood, Modabo, John Gracie, Great Big Sea, Terry Kelly, McGinty, The Cornerboys, Signal Hill, The Monks of Nova Nada, The Halifax Explosion Project, Ray Pelletier and Connie MacAskill to mention just a few. He is in the middle of a new project with Delores Boudreau which features songs in English, French and Gaelic and the playing of percussion guru Tom Roach. Recently Kevin has moved to Ireland where he runs Liam Clancy Studios and works with the Celtic Folk legend Liam Clancy. Since his return he has recorded the Irish group Arcanadh, young up and comer Robert Power and Kevin Byrne. Live at the Marine was recorded on a lovely June evening in Kevin's hometown of Dungarvan, Co.Waterford on the sunny south coast of Ireland.
