North Carolina drummer and veteran Kevin Rumley ventures into solo artistry with VI, a six-track collection that guides us through a deeply emotional journey of triumphs and tribulations, as he channels his trauma and recovery into a powerful, psychedelic indie-rock journey rooted in a story of resilience and healing.
From the ethereal touches of opening track “Turn The Lights,” to the inventive synth tones of layered production “Ohiopyle,” and the poignant finale of “For Clifford,” which serves as a heartfelt tribute to his fallen comrades, with each track on ‘VI’ encapsulating Kevin’s emotions and life experiences.
Describing the reflective EP as “an attempt at making sense of life, love, and loss,” Rumley’s cathartic artistry blossoms within rich textures and profound lyricism as he marks a pivotal moment in his journey. A celebration of his artistic vision that also reaffirms his commitment to healing and community, Rumley’s debut solo project is one that’s not to be missed.
