The Scrapbook! - Kevin McCarthy

“Thanks to you I am living my dream!”

“Going through over 20 years of pictures (over 5000!) and choosing a few was a blast! Wow, so many great times….this is an amazing ride! How do I begin to thank all the people who have make this possible! To everyone who supports me and the show, I am so incredibly grateful! I’m living my dream and yet I can’t do it without a ton of support. Continued thanks for everything and here’s to many more years of fun!” – Kevin

ON THE ROAD AGAIN!

Kevin plays in 20 degree weather
This was officially the coldest show I’ve done! It was at Kissing Bridge OUTSIDE in February, I had a space heater that I had to use in between songs for my hands! I’ve since played 4 shows outside in the winter out there!

Call me crazy, but I’ll be honest, I would rather play on the Royal Caribbean!
This was the boat I performed on! It started out of Miami…it was amazing! It’s slightly warmer!

My good friends Jonny & Jessica – The wedding I played in the Bahamas! It was incredible! I played the reception. My wife and I had an amazing time!
