Kevin Aviance
Kevin Aviance: Towering, Black, and Bald—the drag icon who conquered the ’90s gay dance scene and continues to revolutionize the cultural landscape today. Inspired by avant-garde legends like Grace Jones, Boy George, and David Bowie, Kevin rose from the basements of Richmond, Virginia, mastering music, dance, and theater with a vision that would soon shake the world.
After joining the iconic House of Aviance in Washington, DC, Kevin took New York City nightlife by storm—owning the stages of legendary clubs like Sound Factory, Arena, Twilo, and Roxy. With unforgettable tracks like “Cunty,” “Rhythm Is My Bitch,” “Alive,” and “Give It Up,” Kevin earned two #1 dance hits and collaborated with top-tier DJs and producers. His magnetic presence landed him onstage with icons such as Whitney Houston, Cher, and Madonna, while also shining on screen in acclaimed film roles.
Kevin’s discography speaks volumes—his albums Box of Chocolates, Entity, and Raw have all received critical acclaim and earned cult status within the dance music and queer nightlife worlds. These projects not only showcased his vocal prowess but cemented his position as a visionary in the genre.
More than just a performer, Kevin Aviance is a true LGBTQIA+ revolutionary. He has received Lifetime Achievement Awards from multiple organizations in recognition of his decades-long impact on music, fashion, nightlife, and queer visibility. He’s also been named one of Billboard Magazine’s Top 100 Most Influential Dance Artists of All Time.
Kevin is a sought-after keynote speaker at leading universities like Yale and Brown, where he shares his journey, cultural insights, and hard-earned wisdom on identity, creativity, and survival as a queer artist of color.
His positive influence on humanity has been recognized by none other than Beyoncé, who spotlighted his iconic track “Cunty” on her Grammy-winning, chart-dominating album Renaissance, sampling it on the standout single “PURE/HONEY.”
And the legend continues: On June 6, 2025, Kevin Aviance will release his most ambitious project to date—HIPPOPOTAMUS—a full-length album and epic body of work that spans a multitude of genres under the electronic dance umbrella. It’s a bold, genre-defying statement that proves once again: Kevin Aviance isn’t just a performer—he’s a movement.
