Kevin is a familiar artist to exchange regulars and also plays in the foyer at the Port Macquarie Glasshouse every Wednesday.
At the age of 9, Mr Atkins started piano lessons, and when he turned 14 he was ‘thrown in the deep end’ to play the organ at his local church.
“I would have been pretty terrible because I knew nothing about organs really,” he said.
“But they put up with me for 10 years to play the morning and night service on Sunday.”
Mr Atkins said playing the piano has been beneficial for his health and wellbeing.
He often doesn’t remember what he has to eat for breakfast but can remember songs from years ago.
Kevin will delight the audience on February 2 with his eclectic selection of music from classical, jazz, boogie woogie, rock and easy listening.
Doors open 6.30pm and 7pm-8pm is open mic session.
People are encouraged to bring their instrument or voice to share their songs.
After supper the guest artist will be featured. Entry is by donation.
