What can I say apart from “WOW” – It’s been such a journey!
For the people who know me, it will be no surprise when I tell you that I loved being involved in my close friend Kevin Mark Trail‘s latest album HopeStar… He is, and by far, one of the most prolific artist I have had the pleasure to meet over the last 10 years.
Member of the acclaimed band “The Streets” with Mike Skinner for about 10 years, he’s be all around the world doing what he does best: singing and writing. He’s also co-written Ilana Lorraine’s epic single “I Choose Life”.
Now, last year, Kevin came to me asking me to take part in the creative process that led to what the album cover is today. We booked some time, pushed the furniture in my little apartment and started shooting some brilliant portraits (I’ll post some behind the scenes and other bits real soon too).
HopeStar was officially launched this friday at the roundhouse, and the turnout was amazing. Isn’t it great when people support independent music? Of course I also took a few snaps, check these out:
You can find out more about him on his website. You can like his Facebook Page and follow him on twitter. You can also head to itunes to buy all of his albums, although i was told that HopeStar is not yet there but will in a few days. Until then, you can buy it on amazon! He has a Youtube channel with a bunch of fantastic videos.
Here’s a little intro video about who the man is:
And Lastly, you can download the track “Yellow Man” For FREE on here! how cool is that???
Beautifully written review of Kevin Mark Trail, so engaging, real and so true. Your photos bring the show and the music to life and show the power, the colour and the positivity of this prolific artist. x
