Despite being naturally drawn to the stage and deeply in love with all kinds of music, Ken put his show business aspirations on hold for several years while he pursued a journalism and public relations career. He finally listened to his heart and began singing professionally in 1990 at the relatively late age of 29.

Although his smooth and intimate vocal style is often favorably compared to such legendary pop singers as Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett or noted jazz vocalist Johnny Hartman, he has steadfastly followed his own musical path and has never tried to emulate anyone. He has no formal vocal training – just an exceptional ear, a God-given voice and an innate sense of how to communicate with audiences through song.

“I choose to work in the jazz and cabaret genres because they offer me the most freedom,” he says.

Readers of the San Antonio Current voted him “Best Vocalist of 2007” and “Best Musician” in 2006.
