Kevyn grew up in Berlin, Germany and at the age of 14 moved to San Diego California. By age 17 she'd caught the singing bug and began working with guitarist Peter Sprague singing jazz, R & Band Brazilian music in and around the San Diego area.

Kevyn got her big break when the legendary Brazilian pianist and bandleader, Sergio Mendes, discovered her (Al Jarreau was a mentor too). She toured and recorded with Mendes for eight years, developing her own vocal style along the way. Kevyn's first two solo releases were "Kevyn Lettau" and "Braziljazz". They led to critical acclaim and a loyal following both in the U.S. and abroad, particularly in Japan and the Philippines, where she achieved near-superstar status (Kevyn was a spokesmodel for a soft drink company, featured in multiple television commercials and print ads which ran for years). She is currently the spokesmodel for Philippine Airlines and Sunlife Insurance.

In 1992, Kevyn signed with JVC Music, where she continued her journey of musical and personal exploration. She recorded four albums for JVC including "Simple Life", "Another Season", "Universal Language" and "The Language of Flowers". With her next label, Universal Music, she recorded "Police" (her exploration of the music from the pop/rock genre-bending group), "Little Things" and "The Color of Love".
