Behind the Bard

My Story

second wind

After 26 years of college teaching, I called it quits. I still read, and think, and write--all the essential and fun things of my previous gig--but now my guitar will always be in the room.

When I'm not on the slopes

I don't ski year round, but most every day I breathe in (inspire) and breathe out (expire). It's a little process I've found helps me stay alive and, when I pay attention, also helps me create.

So Here's the Deal

I'll publish songs and such, insights and perspectives, conversations with friends, and invite you to join in the fun. I'm just a belated, sometimes beleagured bard, inviting you too, to Be the Bard!

More to the Story

Craftmanship

Most Tuesdays nights you'll find me hanging out with fellow songwriters as a member of the Songwriters Association of Norman, Oklahoma.

I also host a Singer-Songwriter night the first Friday of each month in my hometown of Shawnee, Oklahoma. Hit me up if you'd like to join the fun. There's also a top secret songwriters group I'm a member of called A Murder of Bards (cool name, huh?). We can be found on Facebook, allegedly. I can always be reached at kevinhall8384@gmail.com
