His last year’s 25th musical nite held at St. Agnes Special School Grounds had drawn huge crowd from near and afar and had enthralled the audience.

The musical nite will be hosted and organized by Master Plan events at at Rosario Cathedral Hall on the 14th of December. The proceeds of this event will be donated to Pathadarshini Seva Trust which funds  deserving students for their higher education.

From his first show in Mangalore in the year 2007, to the latest show at Nainad in May this year, Kevin Misquith has travelled a long way in a very short span of time. This journey got a boost, after he formed his own band Milestone in 2009.

The young troupe added to the experiments and innovations that Kevin brought to his music in successive music concerts. This has made the entire team emerge as one of the best bands in the city, which have been performing at various private and public events.

It is noteworthy that their music has not just appealed to regular Konkani music lovers and patrons but also has been well received by the youngsters who are detached from Konkani. Jackson Noronha, Clyde Lobo, Ashwin Sequeira, Rikith Soans, Royston Pinto and Ian Sachin presently perform with Kevin in the band Milestone.

Kevin Misquith and Milestone together,  have performed in a number of events which also include quite a few performances to raise funds for charitable causes.

At the age of 17, when Kevin Misquith released his debut album ‘Rupnem’, not many knew of this talented lad. Step by step working his way into the world of Konkani music, he has now become a well-known name among the Konkani folk. If one has the heard songs from his earlier albums – ‘Rupnem’, ‘Tuji Yaad’, ‘Hee Jeen’ and the latest super hit album ‘Thembe Thembe’ one can notice the tremendous improvements and innovations that he has brought about in  his successive releases.

From bringing in rich literature to experimenting with new genres; from mellifluous melodies to foot tapping music, ‘Thembe Thembe’ thus turned out to be the most popular albums of the recent times. He is working on the release of his brand new album ‘Ek Geeth’ very soon.

As Kevin traverses 30 milestones, he says “I am filled with gratitude for everyone who has helped me reach this stage and look forward to the continued support and blessings from all my fans and well wishers”..

The 30th musical nite will feature old & new compositions of Kevin Misquith. The band Milestone will score the background music. In addition “Pokri Kalakars” will provide rib-tickling comedy and ‘Gavin Rodrigues & his Silver steppers  will provide necessary glitz with their dance numbers. Sheldon Crasta will compere the event.

Master Plan events along with Kevin Misquith has invited everyone for this grand music concert. The entry for the event is free and all konkani music lovers are invited to witness this musical extravaganza.
