Kevin So has garnered the attention and respect of five-time Grammy award winner Keb’ Mo’, singer/activist Billy Bragg, and Tony Award-winning playwright David Henry Hwang, and has built a loyal fan base around the world for the past 30 years. He has performed at Carnegie Hall, as well as Hollywood Bowl, Wiltern Theatre, and The Ryman in Nashville. In 2007, So was a proud recipient of the NYC International Fringe Festival Award (Best Music & Lyrics) for “Great Wall” – a musical loosely based on his life and times. So has also served as multi-instrumentalist (keyboards, guitar, harmonica, mandolin) in the Keb’ Mo’ Band for the past 15 years. His songs have been recorded by India Arie (Crush on You), Keb’ Mo’ (Talk), Ana Popovic (Slow Dance), Ronnie Baker Brooks (Wham Bam Thank You Sam), and Shemekia Copeland (Sounds Like the Devil). So resides in Massachusetts. He is currently completing his next album, titled “TERESA” – an interpretation and musical exploration of the songs of legendary singer Teresa Teng. He is Americana, soul, and blues in its finest blend.
