Hey from Kenny

Apologies for not being a more diligent blogger, tweeter, fb’er etc. I’ve been feelin’ the electro bug lately – if any of you are into some rpm/beats et al – I do my own special brew… some love it, some find it a bit too retro…  I do what I do – just as in jazz. I just put out an online-only release of Christmas material called “Nativity Set”. If you’ve got 2 bucks and feel like taking a chance on some new holiday music – you can get it here.

I’ve written some new jazz music that will hopefully get recorded sometime this year – also contemplating remastering some of the tracks off of KMT II since most of the world hasn’t heard any of it – some of it is pretty hoppin’ (Savino/Higginbottom lineup). Some of it definitely needs to be re-recorded. If you haven’t heard tracks from it you can download “I Want More of You” for free. Check out Chris’s snappin’ solo right up front!

Special thanks to Radio Swiss Jazz for putting “Sarabande” into their rotation, to Chris at KFSK in Alaska for all the attention, & to all the other stations who are showing the love to  “There You Are”.

There’s a lot more interaction going on over at the Facebook page…so I’ve decided for now to make that the place for all the niceites and specials. CD sale specials, videos and free downloads happen there regularly – if you like those sorts of things – you can access them with 2 free button clicks – here’s the first:

When you get there – just click on “become a fan” and that’s it! You know…Bob’s your uncle. Unless of course you don’t have a facebook account. Then you have a few more clicks and what not. But you should – then you can join groups like “I Hate Cilantro”, “Thomas Crapper Day Awareness”, “French Horn Mania” and, my current favorite: ” Yo si creo en el Chupacabras”.

Spent most of yesterday tidying up this site – the bios page and the background photos. I see that those photos are still a few pixels too narrow for Firefox… when I feel like subjecting myself to major tedium I’ll go back and add 40 or so to them all.  :)

Enjoy your day!
