Despite the global pandemic, it has been so cool to see so many rising artists push through and continue to release new tracks for fans. Our TapSongz Team continues to search all over the internet to find talented rising musicians who deserve the spotlight. One such artist we recently came across is guitarist and singer Kenneth Lewis. Our TapSongz Team had the opportunity to interview him to learn more about his inspirations, latest releases and plans for the rest of 2021.
Lewis is from Charlottetown PEI, a Province in Canada, originally a small reservation. Kenneth recalls in June 2018 his wife bought him a mixing machine called a Zoom R8, which he knew little about. "I started to teach myself how to use the machine, all my life I knew how to play guitar and that was it. I started to want to mix other instruments so I did as well as lyrics and that's when my songwriting started," Lewis told our TapSongz Team. Lewis has made tremendous progress over the past couple of years. "I've written over 300 songs on SoundCloud," Kenneth said.
Lewis had various inspirations while growing up including Tom Petty, CCR, and Elton John. Kenneth has turned these influences into something larger working on his own original music. "I was set to hire a band and management just as COVID hit so touring and album releases will happen when the world is safe again," he said. Meanwhile Kenneth continues to push along releasing brand new tracks. Our TapSongz Team particularly loved "Stay", a laidback alternative track that perfectly displays Kenneth's potential as a guitarist and vocalist. The songwriting is beautiful and we absolutely loved how the track turned out. Another amazing single from Lewis is "Write A Song". The track is a total sing-along, with a more upbeat rhythm and feisty guitar that brings it all together. The tune is so easy to listen to, while still maintaining a unique sound, which we really enjoyed.
Lewis definitely has a talent in being able to pick up any instrument and play it. Kenneth is excited to get back out there and tour. Be sure to support Lewis by tossing him a follow on Twitter and checking out his SoundCloud. We already can't wait to hear more new fresh music from the rising singer songwriter out of Canada and are excited to follow his journey. Here at TapSongz, we thank you for reading this feature article as we continue finding tomorrow's greatest music today!
