Kevin McHugh
Kevin has lived around the world in cities including Seattle, New York, Shanghai, Berlin, São Paulo, and Cairo, performing as a leader or sideman in venues including Benaroya Hall, The Bop Stop, a few venues in New York, and a three month engagement at The House of Blues and Jazz in Shanghai. He has also performed in Denmark at the Viking Jazz Festival, and in Egypt at the Cairo Opera House, the Cairo Jazz Club and Sawy Culture Center, and toured in over 30 cities in the United States. He is a phi beta kappa graduate from Oberlin.
Recently he won a Thomas J. Watson Fellowship, a substantial grant that will allow him to travel the world and explore the sounds and music of four megacities: São Paulo, Cairo, Mumbai, and Tokyo. He is currently in Mumbai and thinks writing in the third person sounds fancier.
