Love. Obsession. Music.
RADIOHEART: The Drive & Times of Kevin Cole is a forthcoming documentary film celebrating Kevin’s 50 years in music, both his passion for finding and sharing it along with the global community that has spun out of it. His is an exceptional, inspirational story of how music heals and how music matters.
RADIOHEART tells the tale of a man dedicated to shining a light on visionaries and underrepresented voices. A gentle-but-fierce spirit, lit by internal forces of love, mindfulness, joy, drive, persistence, spirituality, and impulse; both deliberate and uncontrolled. These have propelled Kevin through his 50-year career and delivered the music loved by so many into their lives.
We show the lasting effect Kevin has had on listeners in Minneapolis, Seattle, Reykjavik, Los Angeles, and other points across the planet: pretty much anyplace with Internet access and speakers plugged in.
While music is the throughline in Kevin’s life, his has been a long and winding road. RADIOHEART examines obsession, addiction, sobriety, depression, running, veganism, social activism, community mental health, and, of course, that purple guitar-playing artist from Minneapolis formerly known as the “artist formerly known as.”
Directed by Seattle filmmaker Peter Hilgendorf, RADIOHEART is in production now and is supported by a fiscal sponsorship with the Northwest Film Forum (NWFF). Your tax-deductible contribution will be used by NWFF to help fund the completion of this powerful documentary.
