MUSICAL ATTRIBUTES:
During the late 70's, Ken was a keyboardist for a local cover band named "Black Pearl". They were under the musical mentorship of the band members from the 70s hit R&B group, "ROSE ROYCE". Jam sessions with these seasoned professionals prepared the budding, local group for public appearances. In the 80s, Ken led two Christian Rock bands who "rocked the house" at local churches and community events in the South Bay area. Ken also served as a Praise & Worship leader for youth and singles groups, and was a soloist for the Sunday morning services in addition to teaching classical guitar classes to members of his home church. The 90s was a decade of growth and expansion for Ken as an artist. He was a multi-instrumentalist for a Manhattan Beach pop rock group. Kens multi-tasked performances included playing electric 12-string guitar, keyboard, harmonica and backup vocal. The group played several local venues, which included being an opening act for guitarist CRAIG CHAQUICO of "Jefferson Starship" fame & VINCE NEIL of Motley Crue fame. During this decade, Ken enrolled himself in two Recording Engineering Schools. He assisted in recording sessions with some of the top names in music and film like PATTI LABELLE, JOHN JORGENSON, ANDY WILLIAMS, JIM BELUSHI, MARTIKA, JULIE ANDREWS, LOU RAWLS, LOU DIAMOND PHILLIPS, RALPH MACCHIO, SCOTT BAIO, MICHAEL MADSEN, BOBBY MATOS, CAROLE KING, SUSIE HANSEN, LOUIS BELLSON (just to name a few). He also continued serving local churches as a praise & worship leader throughout the turn of the millennium. In 2005, Kenneth's debut CD "CHOICES" pulls out all stops as a single artist effort. Ken pushes the envelope of full recording production as songwriter, producer, composer, engineer, vocal performer and multi-instrumentalist. "CHOICES" delivers an exciting and refreshing artistic fusion of rock, funk, pop, jazz, classical, rap, R&B (just to name a few), to the world of Inspirational Music. Through excellent musicianship, it says what needs to be said to a society that's ever evolving.
