Details:
âCampfireâ Kevin Holladay is an award-winning storyteller and singer/songwriter combining years of experience as a classroom teacher, circus clown, and theatre professional into a performance style like no other. From theme-based educational programming to all out entertainment, Campfire Kev has thrilled and delighted audiences of all ages in classrooms, on stages, and under Big Tops from sea to shining sea.

With his first CD, The Campfire Kev Show and Other Radio Favorites, he brings it all to the table in an imaginative âbroadcast dayâ of fictional radio station, WKEV, Kev Radio. In the fall of 2005 this CD earned a prestigious National Parenting Publications Honors Award, and TWO Childrenâs Music Web Awards, including Best Song for Kids 5-8, and Best New Artist for Kids 8-11!

âA feast for the ears, and fun for everyone.â
John Wood, Kidzmusic.com

âFor a childrenâs record, the songs are sophisticated. The musicianship is inspired throughout and, although the songs are aimed squarely at kids, they donât condescend or dumb themselves down.â
Dave Coonce, Audibles

The CD is packed with surprises, including a hidden musical track and recordings of Kevâs brothers and sister from over 30 years ago! Three different bands lent their various styles to the project, and many of Kevâs former students provided voice talent to the scripted pieces.

Behind the scenes CD secrets:
*The CD art is modeled after the cover of an album called âThe Golden Voice of Frank Sinatra.â
*The radio on the back was photographed at Sun Studio in Memphis, TN.
*The recording was paid for, in part, by a grant from the Indiana Arts Commission.

"In all my years as a children's librarian, I have never come across a performer as outstanding as Kevin Holladay.â
Rose Powers, Chicago Public Library

âThe kids ranging in age from three to twelve years old were stopped still in their tracks, watching, laughing, and participating with Kevin. He has something to offer everyone, incorporating education and fun at the same time.â
Melissa McCauley, Director
Bardstown Child Care Program, Bardstown, KY
