We caught up with him while his town was in the midst of a huge blizzard to talk about his latest 2022 CD The Fuse Box that came out on January 14th on Tripping Tree Music. The album is a fusion of Jazz, Blues and Prog Rock Featuring Mike Stern & Brian Charette. He grew up on Pawcatuck CT/Westerly, RI border and has been playing drums since the age of 11 years old .. He was inspired by seeing Ringo Starr on TV early on .. Ken would finally got his first drum set at age 14 and he never looked back .. One of his big moments in life was meeting Danny Gottlieb -one of his drumming idols from The Pat Metheny Group -Danny introduced Ken to his teacher in the great Joe Morello and that would lead to wonderful things ..
