The Friends of KHKE/KUNI present Kevin Morby in Waterloo on March 21, 2020

DES MOINES, (December 3, 2019) – The Friends of KHKE/KUNI present Kevin Morby, coming to Waterloo’s historic Electric Park Ballroom, Saturday, March 21, 2020. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. Music starts at 7 p.m.

With his four acclaimed solo albums and myriad records of various collaboration, Kevin Morby has become a true musical auteur. His singular vision, literate lyrics, and aptitude for catchy, dense songwriting has placed him firmly among the ranks of modern icons like Bill Callahan, Kurt Vile, Sharon Van Etten, Will Oldham, and Jeff Tweedy. Each Morby record possesses its own unique persona and explores intriguing themes and fertile terrain through shifting, focused textures and dexterous, dedicated skill. And now, with the lavish, resplendent, career-best double LP Oh My God, Morby delivers a grandiose director’s cut of his biggest statement to date, epic in scope as well as sound.
