BIO
Kevin Pauls – His Aim is “True”
Music. It’s his love and his life.
And life is about to take an exciting new turn in a brand new direction for Kevin Pauls. An industry veteran with more than two decades in the music business, this longtime gospel artist has toured with The Gaithers, released seven independent albums, won the Hamilton Music Scene Award for Canadian Recording of the Year (2005), and has been honoured with multiple award nominations by GMA Canada. But thanks to a new label (SPF Records) and a new distribution deal with Icon/Universal, Pauls is ready to break into the mainstream in a big way.
His latest CD release, “True”, has him joining forces with some of the most widely acclaimed producers, songwriters and musicians in the industry. In fact, powerhouse producer David Foster co-wrote Pauls’ stunning new single “Make Forever Stay” - a soaring ballad that fans are already calling “unforgettable”. Also slated for upcoming release, a cover of the hit single “Broken Wings” - a song that Kevin makes his own - as only he can.
With his strong, rich voice, rugged good looks and down-to-earth demeanour, this accomplished artist has the ability to connect with his fans both off-stage and on. Kevin’s passion for people runs just as deep as his passion for the music…And audiences across the country are applauding.
Collaborating on “True” are celebrated producers Michael Omartian (Rod Stewart, Christopher Cross, Donna Summer, Amy Grant) and Chris Omartian (Pink, Hillary Duff). With a world-class team behind him, Kevin Pauls is ready to take centre stage on Adult Contemporary radio.
