Ken Oak Band
With Ed now on rhythm guitar, Ken dusts off his old high school cello and begins experimenting with it as a bass and lead instrument. Ed encourages him to sing and play at the same time. This proves to be rather difficult and for a few painful months, the band sucks. They keep playing. A few months later, they are decent. By fall of 2005, Ken and Ed are on their first self-booked national tour. By spring of 2006, they are playing on their second one.
Recent accomplishments include a song placement in the Dreamworks film "She's the Man", an excellent write-up in Billboard Magazine, some notable TV performances, a third national tour, and finishing a new album that they hope will knock the socks directly off your feet.
The duo teamed up with veteran rock producer Duane Baron (Ozzy Osbourne, Motley Crue, Tracy Chapman, Dream Theater) for their latest effort, Vienna to Venice. Having been penned during the tour around the country in Ken's Honda Element, the songs of the album chronicle the journey from East to West, loves come and gone, and the personal growth the duo have experienced in all of the moments in between.
