Kevin Cryderman
About the artist
FITS AND STARTS: SELECTIONS is now available on iTunes and Amazon.com. Kevin Cryderman is an eclectic independent songwriter-singer [[i]sic] originally from Victoria, British Columbia, Canada who is now based in Atlanta, Georgia (USA). With lyrics that range from the simple to the cerebral, where the "I" is often a fictional persona, the main thread of his work is indie folk, alternative folk, folk rock, and pop folk, hanging out in the ballpark's parking lot of fellow Canadian acts such as Ron Sexsmith
