The Song Surfing Podcast features the best in independent music! On this edition of Song Surfing with Friends, John is joined by guitarist/composer Kevin of Kevin and Hell. Kevin talks about finding a passion for jazz through playing rock, learning to play jazz through transcribing Django Reinhardt solos, tuning your songwriting antenna, and recording in both the analog and digital worlds.   “From the garages of the Southern Californian rock scene to the after-hours jazz hangs of Chicago, Kevin and Hell tells a story of the future in the past. They are versed in the idioms of jazz dating back as far as 100 years, as well as recent innovations in rock and electrically generated sound. From this foundation they synthesize a new sound that bespeaks of the shape of music yet to come. Comprised of musicians equally comfortable at either a jazz club or house party basement, they function as a gateway for rock and roll aficionados to behold the majesty of jazz.”This episode features music by Kevin and Hell, Vaguess, Jacques Grêle et les Fausses Fuites, and Greg Ward.Kevin and Hell was first featured on Song Surfing Episode 2.Visit the Show Notes Page for show notes, including links to the artists' sites and the best places to purchase and stream the music featured on this and all episodes of Song Surfing.Watch John on Studio Live Today’s “Creator Town Hall”  John’s was interviewed on  In the Key of Q The theme music for this episode is “Living in a Fishbowl” by Wien Solo The outro music is Little Pills by Patrick Moon Bird Want to help the show? Rate & review on one or all of these sites:           Apple podcasts (scroll to the bottom to find the review link)  Podchaser (scroll down then click +add a review)  Castbox (add a comment instead of a review)  Podcast Addict (click on reviews tab) Listen, Follow and Subscribe to Song Surfing Join the Song Surfers Mailing List -US listeners get a free sticker! Follow Song Surfing on
