   About Kenny Acosta
Meet Rocking Camel recording artist Kenny Acosta and his band The House Reckers. This year marks 43 years in the music industry for this highly talanted Baton Rouge Blues Icon. In Kenny’s illustrious career, he has played with all the greats; Muddy Waters, Roy Buchanan, Taj Mahal, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Kim Wilson, The Neville Brothers, and so many more it’s even mind boggling to him. Kenny’s latest CD, " Full Moon On Blues Street" was released by Rockin’ Camel Records On Aug. 17, 2007. It was produced by award winning producer, Johnny Sandlin and is already receiving rave revues by blues publications around the world. This is a powerful blues album and worthy of your time and consideration. On June 11th, 05’ Baton Rouge Mayor, Kip Holden proclaimed it, Kenny Acosta Day in honor of the release of his last CD, "Spanish Town Mardi Gras". In 2003, then mayor, Bobby Simpson made Kenny Honorary Mayor for a day at Baton Rouge’s Fest For All, on the blues stage, during Baton Rouge Blues Week; the first and only such award betowed upon a Baton Rouge Blues Man, to date. Kenny won the Baton Rouge Blues Society’s blues challenge. He then repersented The Society in Jan. 04’ at the International Blues Competition, held in Memphis, TN. Kenny has established himself as a master bluesman in all his travels, from Key West, FL to Fox, AK and all points between. At a moments notice Kenny’s grooving down Funk St, swinging over to Latin Parkway, recollecting in Oldies Cove, or ripping down R&B Lane. But if it’s blues that you love,you will certianly enjoy this little slice on Heaven. It’s a proven fact a great product will sell itself. Kenny may very well be that special something that your venue has been needing. His soulful voice and scorching guitar are combine with a super tight and funky rhythm section, that is one of the best ever to come out of South LA. Yes, Kenny "has been lots of places and done lots of things", but bottom line is, he will entertian you with his Professionalism and Charisma.
