Kevin Hunt is an Irish-born, Cambridge-based singer-songwriter whose music resonates with soulful authenticity and lyrical depth. With over two decades on the UK folk circuit, including a notable performance at the Cambridge Folk Festival in 2018, Kevin has cultivated a sound that intertwines the rawness of folk with the introspection of jazz and the storytelling of country.
His debut album, Devil's Daughter, released in 2020, garnered critical acclaim for its heartfelt narratives and musical craftsmanship. Red Guitar Music highlighted the album's exploration of redemption and resilience, noting Kevin's ability to channel influences like Van Morrison while maintaining a distinct voice. Tracks such as "A Healin'" and "Hope Against Hope" showcase his penchant for weaving personal experiences into universal themes. 
Building on this foundation, Kevin's latest album, Sligo Rags, delves deeper into themes of legacy, loss, and the human condition. The album features poignant tracks like "John B Yeats," a tribute to the father of W.B. Yeats, and "Go On I Said," reflecting on the passing of Kevin's own father. Songs such as "The Rains," "Spaces Between," and "Order and Chaos" contemplate life's finality amidst its myriad distractions.
Kevin's music has been praised for its emotional resonance and authenticity. Fatea Magazine described him as "a soulful acoustic performer," placing him "into that spiritual Van Morrison tradition." Chris Fox lauded him as "the beast of acoustic music," while the Hertford Folk Club commended his work as "quality through & through."
