Riyadh’s premier Konkani organization, Angan Konknechem and Milestone Events will jointly organise the ‘The 50th Kevin Misquith Live in Concert’ on July 28 at 5.30 pm at Town Hall of the city. The concert will feature a wide variety of prolific talents, whose details will be announced soon.

The entry for the concert is free.

Kevin Misquith is probably going to be the youngest among the Konkani artistes to reach the milestone of 50 nites and the fastest too. He started with his debut album titled ‘Rupnnem’ and since then has never looked back. He presented his first musical nite in the year 2008.

By now Kevin has performed in countries like Canada, England, Ireland, UAE, Oman, Bahrain, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. It must be noted that he was the first ever to present independent Konkani shows in countries like Ireland and Saudi Arabia.

Kevin is one of the very few composers of today's generation, who has given a new dimension to Konkani music. With his New-Age music, he has taken Konkani music closer to the younger generation of today, by making changes as required and so is rightly termed by some as the pioneer of new-age Konkani music.

His best compositions like Abolem, Thembe Thembe, Tu Munon, Khan Khan, Thovllem Kaliz has struck a chord with many Konkani music lovers around the world. Being a young talented artiste himself, Kevin Misquith has given opportunities to several other young talents to perform in his shows and albums.

Apart from his passion for music he has also served in several youth associations under various capacities.
