Kevin spent over 15 years with Terri Clark and another 15 + years with Blake Shelton as a guitarist, pedal steel player, and background vocalist, also appearing as the steel guitarist for 13 seasons on NBC’s The Voice. Today, he tours with Aaron Lewis (of Staind) bringing his signature blend of guitar, Dobro, and harmony vocals to audiences nationwide. Beyond the stage, Kevin is a soulful singer-songwriter whose 2019 EP Them Blue Skies reveals the same depth and heart that has carried him through personal loss, breakups, and the search for healing in turbulent times — making him a truly inspiring guest on We Should Write.

Now with new songs and a fresh perspective, Cyndi is running the game her way. Lindsay and Cyndi dive into a fun, powerful, woman-to-woman conversation about knowing when to step away, the courage to return, and the freedom of creating in divine timing.
