We know you want to hear more. The good news is Ken lives right here in Saint John, New Brunswick, where he was born and raised.

In this episode of Strange Grooves, we head to Ken’s basement studio, “man cave,” to talk about his connection to music and all the crazy places it has taken him throughout his life and career so far.

Ken tells his story unapologetically throughout the conversation with humour, passion, and wit. It’s a story that has given him incredible insight into life in the music and entertainment industry and life in general. We’re super honoured to have him share the insight with us.

You’re in for a real treat.
