Hailed by many as one of the best kalimba players alive today, musical renegade Kevin Spears the "KalimbaMan" has astounded audiences far and wide reimaging what is possible on this traditional African folk instrument. Kevin began applying his musical abilities and heart expression to speak through the kalimba a range of emotions, dreams and visions he found difficult to verbally communicate as a child. Over time the kalimba became his loyal companion and refuge, giving him the ability to communicate through this unlikely instrument in a highly expressive and unique way, becoming a virtuoso player in the process.

Spears masterfully utilizes human ingenuity and technology to weave horns, bass, violins, synths, drums and world percussion to literally create an instant one-man folk-world-funk band that will leave you spellbound and dancing all the same.

"Kevin Spears puts on a performance full of groove, sound and intimacy that draws you into his unique yet universal world".  -Benoit Glazer,  Musical Director Cirque Du Soleil

AfroPop WorldWide says:  "Spears utilizes the traditional African instrument and tweaks it to create a soulful, funky sound that would make Stevie Wonder smile."
