Ken was drawn to music at an early age with
musical parents playing anything
from Ray Charles to Beethoven. Fascinated by different instruments, he made
the keyboard his home. Through high school and college, he spent time
working and playing with multiple bands concentrating on keyboard and
vocals. Moving to Pittsburgh in the early 80’s,
he found himself playing with several cover bands and enjoying the local
blues hangouts. Ken recalls his journey into the blues, “I didn’t listen to
a lot of blues till I got to Pittsburgh. A really good friend who moved from
Chicago got me into it. Man, just something about the blues, no doubt”.
Later, Ken spent some time in Nashville writing
and
recording on the independent charts with his brother before eventually
moving to Columbia, SC. After playing with local blues players, Ken was
deputized as an Untouchable about five years ago, taking his seat at the
keyboard and driving the band’s music to new heights
