Kevin Killen has spent the last several decades compiling an impressive list of credentials featuring the premier pop artists in the music industry, from Peter Gabriel to Elvis Costello, Kate Bush to Jewel, Bon Jovi to Shawn Colvin. Add in the names of U2, Bryan Ferry, Shakira, Sugarland and Duncan Sheik and you get the idea.

Growing up in a large family of eight children, Kevin was exposed to the disparate tastes of his elder siblings at a very young age. These varied influences included a healthy dose of Motown, the Beach Boys, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Thin Lizzy and Free among others. He also became an avid fan of Europe's first pirate commercial radio station, "Radio Luxembourg," and the BBC's" Old Grey Whistle Test" which was responsible for introducing a plethora of new and emerging artists in non-formatted broadcasts.

In the last few years, Kevin received 5 Grammy awards for his contributions to the Sharika "Oral Fajacion". In 2004, he co-founded the first music online collaboration website -eSession - with his friend Gina Fant Saez. He recently mixed his first country artist - Sugarland and scored a # 1 hit. Kevin continues to work in a variety of genres and has also completed albums for Toronto based rock outfit, Pilot Speed, the great Allen Toussaint, Signature Sound Gospel Quartet and indie artist, Rachael Sage.

In December 2009, Kevin was nominated for a Grammy in the Best Jazz Instrumental Category for his work on Allen Toussaint's The Bright Mississippi.
