Kevin Burt is a multi-instrumental musician on the rise. His upbeat blend of soulful guitar, high energy harmonica, and powerful, rich vocals have scored him three awards at the 2018 International Blues Challenge in Memphis including best Solo/Duo. This unprecedented three-award sweep gained Kevin Burt near overnight fame. In praise of his most recent album, Stone Crazy, Rock & Blues Muse said, “There are no bad moments or dead spots on Stone Crazy, just one killer track after another performed by someone who deserves global acclaim.”

Honing his craft in the clubs and restaurants of his home state of Iowa, Burt knows how to charm an audience, combining playful anecdotes with serious musical talent. See this triple threat of vocals, guitar, and harmonica live in his Calgary premiere in the Engineered Air Theatre.
