About Ken Trusler

I grew up in Peterborough Ontario for the first 29 years of my life. In my primary years i was forced into studying the piano in the Royal Conservatory. I passed my grade three and decided that wasnt what I was looking for. Grade 8 graduation came and my parents got me an amp and an electric guitar. About the same time I decided to take Drum lessons and learn the basic riduments and then just taught myself enough to play and try to keep a steady rhythm and not speed up or slow down. In high school i played in various different rock/punk groups and played parties and a few dances. And even a few times at the Legendary Red Dog. In university I developed an ear for more traditional music. Blue, bluegrass and celtic. I tended to favour the traditional jigs and reels. I decided to buy a mandolin and tenor banjo and began learning how to play. I attended Ken Ramsdens Bluegrass and Celtic jams and learned more and more. I began to busk and play weddings, retirement parties, Robbie burns/ St. Pattys celebrations. etc. I began to take notice that this stuff sells!!!! For the past 7 years now i have been residing in Toronto. I plan to get back into the swing of things again. I have nowmoved to Moose Factory and am on the lookout for some Cree fiddlers of James Bay.... Thanks for visiting and hope to see you out there somewhere someday somehow. Cheers.

Sweet Hollywaiians	Aug 6 2009 11:14 AM "Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders) Promotional Video(My Girl From The South Sea Isles) "The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff
