Kevin: King of the Air Surf Guitar: It's about belonging

Mike Davis

Kevin Cousins is a young Koori boy from the Shoalhaven who finds himself in an alien world when his Gran takes ill and is hospitalised there. His life seems to be taking on some kind of structure when he and his sister join the Surf Club and earn their Bronze Medallions so that they can get a surfboard. Then their Gran dies and their mother suffers a total physical collapse. Things will get a lot worse before they get better. At least he and his baby sis are together until they took her away. Kevin will learn his life lessons at the knee of his Uncle Robert and hope that one day his family will be together as one. There's even a time when his mooring lines come loose and he finds himself dangerously adrift is seas of uncertainty after his closest mate is killed on his bike. Kevin will find purpose finally and take control of his life when he befriends the youngest child in the settlement at Wreck Bay and makes sure Little Stevie learns the same lessons he been so lovingly schooled in. Only then does his life take on meaning and the things he's missed so much are returned to him.
