Kevin Bivona

Kevin Bivona is an American musician and audio engineer best known for his work with The Transplants and Tim Armstrong. He is currently the guitarist for the ska punk band The Interrupters.

In 2005, Bivona became the touring keyboard player for The Transplants on the Vans Warped Tour. Following the Warped Tour, he began to work around Los Angeles as a recording engineer. This led to continued involvement with Transplants, as well as Paul Wall, Travis Barker, Dirt Nasty, The Cool Kids, and Psycho White.

On March 2, 2011, Bivona appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno with Travis Barker and Cypress Hill, performing "The Beat Goes On" off Barker's debut solo album. On March 7, 2011, he appeared on Conan O'Brien with the Transplants performing "Saturday Night" off Travis' solo record. In 2011, he engineered and mixed the Jimmy Cliff record Rebirth produced by Tim Armstrong. Both Armstrong and Bivona were awarded the Grammy Award for "Best Reggae Album."

In 2012, Kevin and Aimee Allen co-founded the Los Angeles based ska-punk band The Interrupters along with his brothers, twins Jesse and Justin. Their debut record was released August 5, 2014 on Hellcat Records.

From October 2012 until October 2013, Kevin was heavily involved in the Tim Timebomb project, in which Rancid frontman Tim Armstrong released a song a day for a year via his website.

During the summer of 2013, the Transplants toured the US and Canada opening for Rancid. The Rancid headlining tour was split into three legs which saw the Transplants on the first two legs of the tour. For the third and final leg of the Rancid tour, the Tim Timebomb project took the Transplants' direct support spot. While he played bass in Transplants, and organ, piano and guitar in Tim Timebomb, he also played organ/piano for a few Rancid songs for the extent of the tour. His band The Interrupters were opening support for the second and third legs of the tour.
