Kevin Digital Music RST 

Picture
Bio
​
Kevin is the eldest of 3 children at 15 years old and is currently attending high school. He is an avid music enthusiast and guitar player. You’ll catch him most nights at home jamming on his electric guitar. His favourite genres of music are rock, soft rock, post punk and alternative. He loves to play and learn new rifts on the guitar and also enjoys the outdoors be it playing sports, or skateboarding. His musical journey started early when Kevin was little as his mother brought him to 'kinder music' every weekend. His musical taste only evolved from there and now Kevin hopes to pick up the bass and the drums in the future. If he's feeling adventurous he may even include the odd vocal addition to a musical piece.

My Song Introduction
  • Now She's Gone
  • Alternative rock, because it doesn't fit into one genre but has the electric guitar and drum characteristics of rock
  • Kevin on Lead Guitar, Misha on Rhythm guitar, Josiah on Bass, Tanner on Drums, Michelle on Vocals and Jake on Tambourine
  • The song tackles issues like addiction, particularly alcohol as 'Brandi'. The song tells a story of a man who goes out drinking for the first time, but quickly finds out the repercussions alcohol abuse can have on his life. Unfortunately the man discovered this too late, and everything he knew and loved, including his alcohol is gone.

Song Lyrics and chords
​Intro: Em C G D 
Chorus:
Em C G D
She made me an excuse
but I realize the truth 
​That I was just her pawn 
And now, now she's gone
Verse 1:
Em                      C
I found her in the summer 
G                  D
I met her in a bar
Em                      C
she made me feel number
G                     D
But I took it to far
Verse 2:
Em              C
I woke up on the shore
  G                  D
I said I'd never go back
Em            C
she left me wanting more
G                C
and I took it off track
Repeat Chorus
Solo
Verse 3:

Em                 C
​Brandi tore my life apart
G                    D
She made me feel like I was flying
Em                  C
I shoulda known it from the start
G                    D
There's no point in trying 
Chorus
