Kevin Sekhani Music

As a 20 year veteran of the Austin music scene, Kevin Sekhani has done it all. From blazing rock-n-roll to Holy Ghost Honkytonk, for years Sekhani has entertained crowds with heartfelt enthusiasm and poignant lyrics. In Austin, Sekhani spent his time working with Michael Ramos (John Mellencamp, Patty Griffin), Andrew Duplantis (Son Volt), and Austin Chronicle’s three-time String Player of the Year winner Warren Hood. In 2010, Sekhani moved back to his home town of Lafayette, Louisiana to front The Mercy Brothers, a Gospel group walking the fine line of sinners and saints. Since the prodigal son’s return home, he has won over the hearts of Jazz Fest and Festival International audiences, landed a top 10 spot on the Americana charts in Europe, toured Sweden, and signed his Gospel group to Louisiana Red Hot Records. Kevin Sekhani’s veracious songwriting extends beyond Gospel into secular territory with his debut solo album Day Ain't Done. No Depression praises the album saying, “With a voice slightly reminiscent of a young Steve Earle, solid songwriting, and musicians that include a member of Son Volt and veterans of the backing bands of Patty Griffin and John Mellencamp, Kevin Sekhani's Day Ain't Done is one of the best debut albums I have heard in years”. Day Ain't Done is layered with Americana staple instrumentation, taking the earthy tones of violin, mandolin, banjo and acoustic guitars to give the feel of a back porch jam on a Louisiana Saturday night. The album’s track “Oilfield Tan” has found its way into regular rotation on local Louisiana and Texas radio stations, resonating amongst an area all too familiar with the demanding industry of oilfield work. Kevin Sekhani celebrates his Louisiana roots bringing in a rotating cast of local musicians from Gary Newman, Andrew Duplantis, Will Payne Harrison, Fawn Larson, Jim McGee and even the occasional Mercy Brother. With stops at 2014’s South by Southwest music festival, Sekhani has already began to garner an excitement for his solo career. You may catch Kevin Sekhani at a large festival or even on a small front porch, but where ever it is, it is guaranteed to be one hell of a performance.
