Blessed to have one of the best communities in London, Kow says it's part of the reason why the shows he helps put on are so enjoyable. Archer+Kow has been creating unique events across London for the past 2 years. Kevin McKay, aka Kow, has helped transform a number of locations stretching from London to Toronto into unique venues for underground artists.
Alongside his partner, Allison Oosterman aka Archer, they continue to grow a wonderful community through music, spirituality and inclusiveness. Kevin used this opportunity to pursue a passion in DJing, and recently producing. Having the opportunity to play alongside so much local talent is a pleasure in itself. Kevin’s next goals align with sharper producing skills and exploring new tools for live sets.
It was a pleasure to have Kevin on The Creative Kind Podcast, as we spoke for a while about hosting events, playing good music, and getting involved in London. Enjoy the special 27 minute interview with Kevin and myself, Alex Leonard.
