Philip J. Kearns is a native of Teaneck, NJ. He started performing in clubs in the NY/NJ metro area at the age of 16 and later appeared at Greenwich Village hotspots, such as The Bitter End Café and The Back Fence.

He lent his voice for a number of months to touring the Northeast as Pontius Pilate, a striking lead figure in the musical production of “Jesus Christ Superstar”. Kearns met Grammy-Winner, Phoebe Snow at one of his shows, and their friendship blossomed from there. He began performing in her band and was road manager for her first tour, opening for Jackson Browne. His voice can be heard in the background on her second and third albums. They penned two of the songs “Fat Chance” and “Stand Up On The Rock” together, on the third album, IT LOOKS LIKE SNOW.

He performed with Snow on TV’s Saturday Night Live and Midnight Special. He also worked with her on live shows at Carnegie Hall as well as Specials with Paul Simon, Billy Joel and Boz Scaggs.

In 1977, Kearns opened solo for Bonnie Raitt and Kiki Dee in venues around Los Angeles, such as The Troubadour. Soon after, he won acting roles and bit parts in Highway To Heaven, Hill Street Blues, Deadmen Don’t Wear Plaid, and other Film and TV shows until the mid-’80s. Then, after a brief, award-winning Real Estate career, he moved to North Carolina and taught “On-Camera Film Acting” to aspiring actors for seven years.

Kearns has recently re-vamped his entire life and career. His message is clear and is a flavorful blend of Folk and Rock, with an alternative twist. He has become a poignant voice on topics regarding world peace and social justice, such as fairness to The Gay Community-the Final Frontier for Human Rights.

His sound is melodic. His lyrics are caring, compelling, fun, and rich with tongue-in-cheek surprises. Best of all, Philip J. Kearns provides us with titles such as HUMAN RIGHTS and WHERE DOES PEACE BEGIN?- provocative, thoughtful works that offer heartening and hopeful musical perspectives. Such perspectives are welcome relief for the difficult global issues that we all face.
