Kelvin Jones signs to Epic Records in the UK

02 October 2014 - Press release

Epic Records and Sony Four Music Germany are pleased to announce the signing of Kelvin Jones.

The hugely talented 19 year old is already somewhat of a sensation with a huge buzz surrounding him. Having posted his track “Call You Home” on Youtube at the beginning of 2014, it found its way on to Reddit and was then subsequently discovered by researchers on the American TV show Good Morning America. The subsequent exposure meant the track was viewed over one million times in the space of 24 hours. Offers from labels and publishers across the world soon followed, with Epic winning the race to the star’s signature who will release his debut album in 2015.

Kelvin’s songs mix simple pop melodies with beautiful, soulful vocals. Says Kelvin: “My love for blues is matched by my love of good quality pop music. I love pop and blues so I find that often my challenge when writing is to try to bring those two together. I would describe my music as the fusion of those two passions.”

Willy Ehmann, Senior Vice President Domestic GSA, said: “At Sony Music / Four Music we pride ourselves with having a strong belief in new talent and working with them side by side. Kelvin Jones is one of these rare newcomers with an enormous creative talent and overall potential. We’re thrilled to be able to work with Kelvin and the whole team.”
