Kenny Schick
Kenny Schick's music is expressionistic americana - it is mostly acoustic with colors of rock, punk and jazz. Schick has a loyal following, and for good reason - he represents the dream that never died; the guy who found his calling at 13 and never turned his back on his obsession with music. Schick's audiences feel this passion and are treated to performances that reflect decades of experience playing music from every imaginable genre. He has played rock, jazz, punk, world music, and classical on instruments ranging from screaming electric guitar to energetic saxophone to subdued flute. Once he decided to go solo, he spent a year trying to figure out how to strip down his densely layered music to just an acoustic guitar and vocals. He still spends a great deal of time intensely refining his craft. At Schick's shows, there is laughter, tears, musical craftsmanship, and thought provoking lyricism. The shows take listeners on a journey with much interplay between Schick and the audience. Kenny is a generous performer - he'd have a great career as a comedian if he chose, and uses his quick comedic sense to balance the intensity of the songs, which often explore darker realms of human experience.
Aside from performance, Schick's love of music extends into the recording and production of music too. With all his skills, he has helped many of his fellow musicians and bandmates fulfill their dreams both on stage and in the studio recording their albums. Demand for his expertise became so high that he started his own business with his wife in 2008 Basement3Productions and spends a good deal of time these days recording, producing, and orchestrating for other singer/songwriters and bands. Kenny also still plays in numerous local and international bands both on saxophone and guitar, and has a duo with his wife called ArtemesiaBlack that perform romantic ghost stories.
