Kevin Roth Career

At thirteen he discovered the mountain dulcimer and fell in love with its sound and peaceful quality. Although the traditional music of the dulcimer is simple, Kevin’s musical background and interests ranged from Peter, Paul, and Mary, to jazz, classical, and world music. He followed his calling and developed a style of dulcimer playing completely his own.

This unique sound caught the ear of Moses Asch, legendary founder, and director of Folkways/Smithsonian Records, who signed Kevin in 1974, to what would become a twelve-album deal. Kevin quickly became known around the world as a leading innovative dulcimer player.

In the early eighties, Kevin began to write, record, and perform for children. His music career skyrocketed as he produced award-winning albums and made numerous television and concert appearances. He sang the theme song to the hit PBS/FOX television show, ‘Shining Time Station’, based on the character of Thomas the Tank Engine.

Kevin has recorded for Sony Music, Random House, National Geographic, and the Book-of-the-Month Club, to name a few. His concert, radio and television appearances along with his recordings have carried him across the country and abroad, performing in solo and symphony concerts, music festivals, and two appearances at the White House. His entire Folkways collection is now part of the Smithsonian Folkways label.

Kevin joined forces in 2006 with his long-time mentor, Noel Paul Stookey of Peter, Paul & Mary, to record a collection of songs based on original artwork. The resulting CD/DVD collaboration, ‘Between the Notes’, garnered rave reviews and his art and music were premiered at the San Diego Museum of Art. Several years later he began work on a new project of mostly original songs revealing his inner-reflection about love, loss, hope, and discovery.

One evening in 2015, around ten-thirty at night, Kevin’s cell phone rang. It was Noel driving home from a concert. He had been listening to the early demos from ‘Awakenings’ and, although previously recorded, Stookey suggested that the songs deserved re-recording with a more ‘supportive ambiance’.
