Kevin Wood, a 39-year old recording artist who has sold over 35,000 of his new age albums, was raised in the Bible belt of the South, living both in Central Texas and near Nashville, TN. His mother was a school teacher in English and his father was a religion professor and ordained minister. Certainly seems like an odd upbringing for someone who has found a comfortable niche and much success within the new age music industry.
'I've been searching for a deeper meaning in life and a deeper spiritual understanding. I believe this yearning is one of the reasons I have been so drawn to chants of Native Americans and to New Age/World music,' Wood said.
Trained in classical piano and percussion since age 6, Wood was heavily influenced by conventionally structured music, a style that affected him and served him well within the New Age genre. 'I agree with Steven Halpern when he wrote that most New Age music is 'based upon harmony and consonance, rather than dissonance,' and it is often based on conventional chord structures, helping make us feel in balance, at peace, and in harmony with the world,' Wood said.
Wood's newest and third release, Kindred, which was debuted at the Deepak Chopra 'Seduction of Spirit' meditation training in Austin, Texas, shows evidence of a strong World flavor that complements his conventional compositional style. For Kindred, chants from all over the globe are seamlessly woven with modern grooves and ethereal sounds. The stunningly beautiful cover of Kindred is certain to win awards as his past titles have. 'I was really fortunate through a close friend to get connected with one of the best designers around, and they happened to live down the street. Now, she lives in Switzerland, but we are still able to pull off projects together,' said Wood.
