Ken Koenig

As early as age four, Ken developed a musical interest with great musical groups like Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons and The Beatles. By the age of twelve, his desire to replicate his favorites led to the purchase of his first guitar. At age thirteen, a never-ending quest for musical input has led to the well-developed talents of Ken today and a passion for writing and performing. Ken has performed with various bands since 1985, including the Elvis impersonator, Ron Friel. In 1995, Ken joined with other musicians to form Daze of Green. The band created two CDs: A Musical Philosophy and When the Last Shining Star Falls, as well as numerous other compilations and projects Ken accomplished with the band. Ken now works as a soloist, but is available for both small acoustic sets and full band performances. Ken’s influences are artists: Brian Setzer, Neil Finn, The Beatles, Elvis and The Beach Boys, to name a few. His sound can be compared to Neil Finn or Dave Matthews and has been referred to as having a Beatle-isk overtone. With all these talented influences, Ken has developed a sound of his own.
