“I’m leaving football behind to fully commit to music. I’m grateful for all the memories, teammates, and supporters throughout the years. It’s been an amazing journey, but now it’s time for a new chapter. Thank you to everyone who has supported me — especially my family!”

In 2024, Kevin Walker concluded an impressive career as a professional footballer, having played for top Swedish clubs such as AIK, GIF Sundsvall, Djurgårdens IF, and Örebro SK. During his career, he became a Swedish Champion and lifted the Swedish Cup with Djurgårdens IF.

But it was winning Idol in 2013 that made Kevin a household name across Sweden. In 2014 and 2015, he was frequently seen on TV, in the press, and on the radio, touring nationwide and even making a guest appearance on Ireland’s biggest talk show, The Late Late Show.

With his humble and professional approach, Kevin has built a strong reputation and established himself as one of Sweden’s most exciting musical talents. He has collaborated with music legends such as Jörgen Elofsson, Chris Rehn, Kevin Högdahl, Fredrik Andersson, Karl Ola Kjellholm, and Andreas Eriksson.

In 2024, Kevin focused on transitioning fully into his role as a full-time artist, embarking on new co-writing projects and releasing a couple of singles.

2025 kicks off with an exciting collaboration with record label Loudkult. We look forward to a stream of new releases and a packed schedule of live performances.

From now on, Kevin is all about the music — 100%!
