KEVIN STOKLEY | STORIES TO PROVE IT

Gone Coastal Records is thrilled to announce the release of the latest release from Kevin Stokley, Stories To Prove It, available everywhere digitally on June 12th, 2020.

Stories To Prove It is a collection of songs from Country Artist Kevin Stokley that aims to focus on stories of life. The five track EP will feature songs that were produced while Kevin was quarantined in his home from February to April. What started out as another single release quickly developed into a snapshot of tales about love lost and found, the special bond of family and friends, and a closer look at what it means to be human.

“Just A Kid From Somewhere”, the second track from the release, is available now on Spotify, iTunes, Pandora, and everywhere else digital music is sold and streamed.

Over the past year, Kevin Stokley has amassed an incredible library of songs that have connected with fans of all ages. His music has been featured on Netflix documentaries, as well as Spotify curated playlists. His knack for releasing material listeners can relate to has allowed him the opportunity to work with many artists such as John Marlin, Charlie Millikin, Frankly Speaking, Gregg Bolger, and Grace Spaulding.

Kevin Stokley has magnified and glorified the intersecting sweet spot of love for distinctly country music, swelling guitar string arrangements and the tricky craft of writing songs that are both intensely personal and universally identifiable.” -AllMusic, 2018

“I feel like I’ve come to a place in life where I’m comfortable. It’s easy to look ahead at 36 with a positive outlook and the days and months just seem to make a little more sense. I think this collection of songs really shares where my head is at and I’m so proud to share them with you.” – Kevin Stokley
