Formerly of boy band NLT, McHale is best known for his recent role as Artie Abrams in the Fox hit television series Glee.McHale was born in Plano, Texas. Before becoming an actor, McHale joined an American Boy Group, NLT, which is short for "Not Like Them". The R&B group was discovered by Chris Stokes. On March 13, 2007 they released their first single "That Girl". The band had a guest appearance in Bratz: The Movie. On April 30, 2009, group member Travis Garland announced that NLT had split.

His first appearances in television and film were in 2005. McHale currently stars on Glee as Artie Abrams, a member of the McKinley High glee club who uses a wheelchair. Although his character is in a wheelchair, McHale is an able-bodied dancer and has responded that it was hard to keep his feet from moving along with the music while he was on the set. He had his first solo single on Glee singing "Dancing with Myself" in the episode "Wheels". In the episode "Dream On" he danced in a fantasy sequence to "The Safety Dance" and sang "Dream a Little Dream of Me".

McHale's acting credits include a 2007 appearance on NBC's The Office in the season 4 episode "Launch Party", where he played a pizza delivery boy who is taken hostage by Steve Carell's character, Michael Scott. In 2008, McHale was on HBO's True Blood for two episodes as Neil Jones, a coroner's assistant. Kevin was also in three episodes of Nickelodeon's hit show Zoey 101 as Dooley. In 2010, McHale appeared in One Call's music video 'Blacklight' alongside his fellow former NLT member, Justin.

This was arguably one of his best performances, short or not. I might be biased because I just love this song but it’s so beautiful. Kevin’s talent was under-appreciated as were so many other cast members and Naya’s performance of Songbird was extraordinary.🖤

They've done a lot of other covers that sound better than the original, but haters and commonsfolk who dont even know the show well just wanna focus on the bad ones. For example their covers of Valerie-Amy Winehouse, The Scientist-Coldplay, Songbird-Fleetwood Mac, and Smooth Criminal-Michael Jackson are WAY better than the originals, among others.

@neighborhoodginger4444

I get why people like this version, but I think it really busts the intimacy of one man in a moment of weakness when the song is played by an army of people aggressively strumming the same two chords.

@zombiedino184

I'm glad someone agrees

@joshwhyatt5540

4y↑7

It’s a actually a trick Brian May used in a Night at the Opera it’s called a guitar orchestra it’s gives this sense of grandeur from a group of guitars it also makes the song feel bigger

@neighborhoodginger4444

@Josh Whyatt I think that technique has a different effect on a Queen track than a Fleetwood Mac track. What song did he use it on?

@joshwhyatt5540

No hate to Brittana but I really wish Artie and Brittany had stayed together longer. They were really cute together and Artie always understood and supported her. This was just said out of anger which he had every right to be, even though calling her stupid was definitely uncalled for.

@majormana1

she was CHEATING on him.

@divaalfirman3295

@Miss Amanda's world I remember really hating Santana after this. If she really did love Brittany she would see that she was happy being with Artie but yeah for plot’s sake she had to be a selfish bitch. I’m pretty sure if Brittany told Artie she would rather be with Santana he would understand. Artie just doesn’t like being lied to.

Live the whole bad play though, so its not like he does it by himself all the time, anyways all those guitars make the song more powerful imo. I imagine they did this so the musicians could get a chance in the spot light, easily one of my favorite glee covers.

@picker4775

4y↑12

They're likely all miming the parts for the filming but the first dude to come in is playing the song without a capo in fourth which which would put it in a different key. His finger picking miming is accurate enough that he clearly plays guitar, but clearly was faking it for that scene.

@adesuwaokungbowa4364

@Ɯ you're absolutely correct. The first dude was a guitar teacher, so his will definitely follow.
