With all the drama and confusion of those many late night talk shows, it is easy to be left wondering what shake up will occur next. Long time late talk show band-leader Kevin Eubanks is headed out the door.
For six more weeks you can tune in and catch Kevin still actively bringing the funk with his band along side Jay Leno but afterwards the jam session will end for good. There have been many rumors circulating as to what may have led to Kevin’s leave. Was it Conan and his twitter jolts?
Kevin has played not only Jay’s bandleader but often times his witty wing-man punch line for punch line. Kevin a veteran on the show has be a part of this routine for an unwavering 18 years and feels his time has come to bud farewell.
Essence has put together a tribute of little known facts about Kevin to help readers get a little more familiar of his character as not to leave him in the shadows of being “that black guy with the guitar.” We at FoxyNC want to say so long to Kevin and send him best wishes into his future.
