48 - Creatives Series: Kevin Keenan

from Irish Marketing Podcast Hosted by Tinpot Productions

In this episode of our summer creative series, Daryl sits down with Kevin Keenan, owner of Cobblestone Brands, who has been described by industry peers as a "proper creative" who can put his hand to absolutely anything. Spanning a 20+ year career, Kevin shares his journey from cutting his teeth at Cawleys and TBWA to founding the agency Guns or Knives. He opens up about the commercial realities of moving from creative director to startup founder, the brand strategy behind launching Glendalough Distillery using the barefoot story of St. Kevin, and Cobblestone's rapid growth to eight (soon to be nine) spirits brands—including their recent major acquisition of Bisquit & Dubouché Cognac and Cabo Wabo Tequila from Campari.
