Twenty-year-old Kevin
Tapia has lived a life surrounded by music and instrumentation from the moment
he was born. Kevin’s family, originally
from Mexico, have been a driving force behind his musical passion and creativity
as he comes from a family of musicians. From the age of eight, Kevin knew that
he had a knack for music and by the age of 12 he was learning to play the
guitar, with a little help from his uncle and the inspiration of Carlos
Santana. However, it was not until high
school that Kevin decided that this might be a possible career path.
Musically, Kevin listens
to an array of sounds, but his heart lies in two places in the realm of genres:
Latin music and R&B. Nonetheless,
coming from a Hispanic household, Kevin has been most influenced by Latino
artists such as Romeo Santos, Sin Bandera, Camila, and Mana. No artist has influenced him quite the same
way as the Guatemalan singer songwriter, Ricardo Arjona, “His style of writing is so unique and
the words he writes are so strong he’s just the man!” says Kevin.
After finding himself
embodied with this overwhelming love of music, Kevin began to embrace the
possibility of one day becoming a household name. His ambitions are simple but genuine: to
inspire and enlighten through the music he makes. “I want to inspire people and make
them strive for their goals even if it’s not being a musician, it could be
anything!” he says. Kevin’s well rounded
ear and love for the guitar is what keeps him sane in moments of discontent, “Just
when I feel like my world is coming down, I just crank the volume of my
electric guitar and just start playing.”
The future is bright for Kevin, he hopes to continue playing his
music and showing the world his talent while bringing a smile to the faces of
those who hear him. Be sure to follow Kevin
on social media and keep up with all the new music he’ll be sending your way!
