Kerry Lewis
Kerry LewisTexas Asst. State Manager Born and raised in Houston, Texas; Kerry Lewis grew up around music his entire life. Kerry’s father played classic R&B music around the house and was a drummer/percussionist/vocalist in multiple local R&B bands. These bands would practice right in the families living room! Kerry would pick up on each and every one of these things which would make him the person he is today. Kerry’s love for music, including classic R&B started when he was a young child playing his fathers and father’s band members instruments around the house and by High School, he was making old school music CDs for his classmates. Kerry also played trombone in Middle School. After High School, Kerry studied various music related courses including songwriting; production; music theory; music business 101 and many more at Houston Community College. Kerry always kept a close eye on the music world, working with local artists or writing music and producing tracks with cousins. Things would change, however in 2016. Kerry’s father introduced him to KTSU 90.9 radio personality, E.A. Savannah. This led to Kerry becoming a radio personality & DJ in 2016, joining Texas Southern University’s radio station; KTSU 90.9 and playing at the station for over 4 years. Since 2020, Kerry is currently an on-air personality for the longest running Black radio station in the state of Texas, KCOH 1230 AM.
