‘Knock on Wood’ is a newly formed trio. Jack, Kevin and Lili met through jam sessions in Ottawa and realized that they have a shared vision for music.
Knock on Wood is aiming to deliver acoustic songs through the guitar, the percussion, the flute and vocals.

Kevin is also a recording artist who is involved in music production. He has been mixing for artists and writing music for shows and plays for more than 15 years.
Kevin has strong roots in acoustic music and his performance before an audience becomes harmonious through mellow vocals and punctuated rhythms. His acoustic interpretation of tunes can be both familiar and novel at the same time.
