Kevin Kiner Highlighted At Soundtrack.net Posted By Mike on November 22, 2008
Composer of The Clone Wars, Kevin Kiner, has received a nice write-up over at Soundtrack.net. See below for an excerpt and click here for the full feature.
"A California native who began his career as a rock guitarist in San Diego, Kiner enrolled in UCLA as a pre-Med student. Gigs playing around Hollywood led from the stethoscope to the Stratocaster; hired as the musical director for an international touring group with bookings in Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, Korean and Japan, he departed Los Angeles for the world. Kiner had previously composed and performed in the musical stage presentation A Taste of Honey with composer and future music executive Evan Greenspan. Returning from a world tour, Kiner planned to return to medical school, but Greenspan, now working at Alan Landsburg Productions, had a tip about a television show titled The World's Funniest Commercial Goofs. Unsolicited, the two created a theme song and were subsequently employed to score the show. Next, Kiner scored Foul Ups, Bleeps and Blunders. "There were four different producers," he remembers. "They all got their own shows and within a year I was scoring all four."'
