Having performed and recorded with some of music’s most talented people, in 2002 Kevin Whalum set out to stake his own claim as an artist with his debut release, “Timetable”. Self-written and produced, it received critical acclaim from several entities, not the least of which was “My Favorite CD of 2003” by Chris Rizik, owner of Soultracks.com. His sophomore release, “One Life To Love” goes even deeper inside the man whose music was already substantive. At once soulful, funky, clever, and jazzy, “One Life…” lets one feel the grooves that have been missing from mainstream radio far too long. “WonderMaze”, a tribute to the groove-laden songs of two of his musical heroes, Stevie Wonder and Frankie Beverly, takes us on a brief trip back to the summer music festivals of the late 70’s and early 80’s. Take a moment to remember the best concert/picnic you ever attended…got it? Ok, that feeling you have now is what “WonderMaze” inspires. Blending styles as varied as Frankie Beverly and James Taylor, Kevin doesn’t miss his self-imposed mark of staying true to his Memphis roots.
