Kenny White
has been hailed by reviewers across the country for his thrilling and
unique piano playing, gaining a reputation as a ‘dazzling’ and
‘not-to-be-missed’ performer. He’s worked with Gladys Knight, Linda
Ronstadt, Aaron Neville, Marc Cohn, Shawn Colvin, and Judy Collins
among many others. White produced three records for legendary J. Geils
Band leader, Peter Wolf; the second one, Sleepless, garnered the
distinction by Rolling Stone magazine as being one of “the 500 greatest albums ever made.” White’s
latest album Comfort in the Static, (Wildflower Records) follows the

deft storyteller employing striking arrangements and spot-on vocals
reminiscent of Elvis Costello, Bob Dylan and early Randy Newman. Kenny
White’s lush piano melodies, vulnerable vocals and insightful lyrics
make for a seminal recording that observes the boundaries between jazz,
blues, rock, pop and folk…and then proceeds to step over them.
