A truly distinctive performer, Ken moves effortlessly between solo performance and full band settings, captivating audiences with a voice that is both rich in character and deeply expressive. There is a warmth and stillness to his delivery that draws listeners in, creating a rare sense of calm, connection, and emotional depth. A gifted songwriter, Ken's compositions shine with subtlety and craft, as heard throughout his acclaimed live Willowfield album, where each track reveals his natural feel for melody, storytelling, and atmosphere. For this special festival appearance, Ken takes to the stage in a much-loved Monday afternoon slot, offering a moment to pause and immerse in beautifully crafted songs and intimate performance. His set is designed to bring a sense of space and reflection to the day, allowing audiences to truly savour the music.
Joining him is the highly respected Clive Wills, a sought-after musician on both the jazz and blues circuits. Clive's sensitive, expressive playing adds an extra layer of depth and colour, complementing Ken's songs with effortless musicality.
Together, they create a refined and engaging performance—rooted in jazz and blues sensibility, delivered with grace, feel, and genuine artistry.
