The bond between brothers can often be quite special, as is the case for Kevin Bacon and his older brother Michael. The two are the only boys out of six kids born to Ruth and Edmon Bacon in Philadelphia. While the siblings are all quite close, the brothers have a deep connection thanks to their band, The Bacon Brothers.
Michael, born in 1949, and Kevin, born in 1958, are the only sons of Ruth and Edmon Bacon, who also had four daughters. The siblings grew up in downtown Philadelphia in a close-knit family environment. Their parents, Ruth and Edmon, allowed them to forge their own paths in terms of their relationships, fostering a strong bond among the siblings.
