Biography
Kev Fresh is a renowned party starter with DJ sets that cross genres from old school to new school and everything in between! Honing his craft around the bars, club and notorious night spots of Wellington City for the last 5 years or so he has also dropped sets in every major city in NZ as well as spots in Australia, Canada and South East Asia. In recent years Kev has leaned towards radio and dropping big sets and some of NZ's favourite festivals. Expect the unexpected and something a little special when Kev Fresh jumps on the decks.

Known for his work fronting the enigmatic rock band Pedro the Lion, David Bazan’s emotionally charged narratives, eye for telling detail, and mournful voice have more in common with J.D. Salinger’s “Nine Stories” or Flannery O’Connor’s “Wise Blood” than with the usual lyrical slant of popular music. Bazan is a gifted storyteller, weaving parables of spiritual conflict, suburban ennui, and personal surrender into magnetic, well-crafted songs.

His debut solo full-length album, Curse Your Branches (out now on Barsuk), is a masterwork by a modern American poet at the height of his powers. Paste Magazine called him one of the “100 Best Living Songwriters”. This record is the deepest and most explicit exploration of his struggles with faith and a meditation on all things passed between the generations.
