Kevin Bazinet (born June 14, 1991) is a Canadian pop singer, who won the third season of the reality television series La Voix in 2015. [1]
Originally from Mont-Laurier, Quebec, [2] he is the younger brother of singer Bobby Bazini. [2] In the late 2000s, he became a popular performer on YouTube, [2] performing both original songs and covers, and received a recording contract offer from EMI France in 2009. [2] However, the contract fell through as Bazinet battled anxiety disorder. [2]
After taking time away from the business to look after his physical and emotional health, he reemerged in 2015 as a competitor on La Voix, auditioning with a take on Sam Smith's acoustic version of "Latch". [2]
In the finale on April 12, he performed "Jusqu’où tu m’aimes", a song written by his coach Marc Dupré and Alex Nevsky. [1] He was named the winner at the end of the episode, with 46 per cent of the audience vote. [1]
On May 12, "Jusqu'où tu m'aimes" was released as his first radio single. [3] The song peaked at #2 on Quebec's French language pop charts.
In June, Bobby and Kevin performed together on Quebec's Opération Enfant Soleil telethon, duetting on a version of The Bee Gees' "To Love Somebody". [4]
He released the album Talk to Me in fall 2015, [5] and toured to support it. However, he did not release any followup recordings in the next several years, and instead became a music teacher, [6] although he continued to perform occasional concerts.
In 2024 he released the EP Unfinished, his first new recording since Talk to Me. [7] He also made a number of television appearances, performing a stunt audition for Dupré on the 10th anniversary special episode of La Voix, [8] and appearing on the debut season of Quel talent!, the Quebec version of the international Got Talent franchise, with the band Harmonix. [9]
He was romantically linked with his fellow La Voix competitor Alicia Moffet in the 2010s. [10] They later broke up, with Bazinet subsequently announcing that he was in a new relationship with Charlie Cormier. [11]
Bazinet and Moffet remained close friends, however; after Cormier suffered a miscarriage in 2019, Bazinet noted in a television interview that Moffet was an important part of their support system. [12]
In 2021, Cormier gave birth to the couple's first child, a daughter named Madeline who was the subject of one of the songs on Unfinished. [13]
