Kevin's introduction to music was through the church. "I first
started singing in church and I just always listened to the radio and sang
in the shower," Kevin confessed to us. "But the first real singing I did
was at talent shows at school. And of course, I was in the school's choir
and speech and drama and musical theater. And I also played football. It
wasn't common to be a jock and to sing".
"I liked trying the foods from different places but after a while
I missed some good American food."
"I average only about five or six hours of sleep (a night when
we're on the road),because after a show, it's hard just to come back and
go to bed because you are so wound up. I usually end up flipping through
the TV channels for like an hour or two before I go to bed."
What do you do on your rare moments of "chill time"? "I
go see a movie and stay home. Or I watch TV and play my keyboard."
"We've been together every day for four years now. At first you
had to learn what would set everybody off. But now it's like family. I
had never had a little brother, but now I've got four. We don't get along
perfectly. We have our arguments, but they get worked out."
"I definitely have new-found respect for the artists like Michael
Jackson and Prince and all those other artists that only have been successful
but have been on top for a long, long time. It is so much harder then any
of us ever expected."
Playtime with Kevin
"Probably hit the gym first, because I feel like a complete slob
right now, and then go hang out in a mall and look around, buy some CD's,
maybe go look at some clothes, take a nap and probably watch some TV--
just relax."
Three wishes
"Let's see! Um I'd like to, uh... I'd wish for a long, long, happy
career in the music business, because I love music and, uh... without music
I don't know what I'd do. Um ... let's see... uh... I'd like to have a
nice family someday, so I'd wish for a nice wife and family someday. And,
ummm . Just health. Good health. I don't want to get too deep there, so
I won't."
So what's your favorite thing to do on a date? "Nice dinner,
nice conversation, maybe a movie, dancing..."
"Basically we've learned that traveling throughout the world that
people are just people, everywhere you go."
