Ken Krasner

About Me

Ken Krasner has grown from humble roots as a zygote, a fetus, a toddler and even a teenager to become a multi-cellular adult mammal capable of creating pleasing and interesting soundwaves for other mammals.Highlights include a stint as bass player and background vocalist for CHUBBY CHECKER, and tours of the US with other pop and rock bands including the power-pop-rock-soul-trio PUP, art-rock-quartet CAST OF THOUSANDS, THE STAND, BUBBA ZEUS and several others. Scoring several feature length films, documentaries, an off-Broadway show and some TV has stimulated synapses, nourished neurons and has been just plain fun.
