Premiering exclusively on American Blues Scene is the lyric video for the sympathetic single “Keeping My Brother Down.” Kevin started writing the song after reading about Emmett Till’s murder. He finished it by drawing a throughline to Eric Garner and the events of Ferguson, MO.
“I’ve had a very interesting life,” blues legend John Mayall once told American Blues Scene. “And I think, being a musician, you are able to put your experiences into music. That’s the nice thing about the blues is you can tell your stories through words and music.”
