KeN is a unique blend of musical styles and influences created by an uncommon assembly of musicians. Their common goal is a raw natural desire to kick some rock and roll ass. Influenced by waning moons, booze, the concept that music is math, and the urban Philadelphia shadows, KeN channels the grit and spit to shape their song concepts in the cauldron of their original brand of rock.
Now, after ten years of supporting and rocking the Philadelphia local music scene, KeN is releasing their first full-length CD, Parade of Sinners, in July 2005. Recorded July 2003 with Brian McTear at Miner Street and mixed and mastered in February 2004 with Pete Rydberg at 1935, this CD is a non-stop powerful force of nature.
KeN's Parade of Sinners won the Best Punk Album of 2006 award from Just Plain Folks
ps: The song "Hike" was also nominated in the Best Punk Song category!

Sundown Lounge is a laid back (and often explicit, you bet your ass...) weekly podzine of music, spoken word, progressive politics, weird science, and occasional vignettes from the west coast open mic scene, etc. Physically, I'm in rapidly gentrifying downtown Los Angeles, but metaphysically, my toes are in the sand and the sun is ablaze with deep hues, and a few poets and musicians and scientists have dropped by my beach house to hang out and jam, as the surf whispers nearby...The Open Mic Stage accepts spoken word and music files for play. : Hear "A True Liberator" on Friday's Archived Podcast:
