Event Description
Join us for a night of original music and select contemporary covers Kevin Head at The Cove on Thursday September 18th 2025 from 5-8pm!
From Kevin:
“CBC recorded 4 of my songs in 1972. My first LP of original songs was recorded and released in Nova Scotia in 1980. I’ve got a bunch of old press releases from then & subsequent releases over the years, as well as new songs I haven’t recorded. Blah blah blah. Big whoop. Thanks for the opportunity to play my tunes…”
