Kevin Aviance

Legendary and iconic nightlife performer Kevin Aviance became an underground sensation in the late 90’s gay dance scene, in which he was a key player and personality that would help influence and inspire what has become a global dance music culture phenomenon.   He’s had 7 number one singles on the Billboard Music Charts, worked with the icons of pop, fashion and art and yet arguably his most famous moment found him waking up alone in a hospital bed fighting for his life.       Born Eric Snead in Richmond, Virginia, Aviance was heavily influenced by Grace Jones in his teens and made his way north to Washington, DC where he would connect with the House of Aviance and eventually find himself performing at New York’s legendary club Sound Factory. He would make a name for himself primarily as a staple performer for Junior Vasquez. Kevin has now returned from a brief hiatus and is conquering the world for the second time!
