Artist description Ken writes mostly guitar-based tunes, featuring unusual lyrical angles and instrumental colorings. His songs range from the upbeat, strummy travelogue "The Invisible Thread" to the wry "Sadsack Novel" to the subdued, acoustic "Can't Help Falling Down" to the loopy mini-epic "Pokerface."

Music Style Ken Siegert plays catchy, quirky and melodic pop-rock on his debut CD, UP FROM THE MURKY DEPTHS.

Artist History Speaking of his previous one-man-band release, ALTERNATIVE PRESS "was hooked bigtime by this bouncy bedroom-studio gem." For his CD debut, Ken closed the bedroom door, got in his car, and drove from his Boston-area home to Hartford, CT to record at co-producer Jim Chapdelaine's MultiMusic studio. After countless mind-numbing trips back and forth, yet bolstered by winning MUSICIAN magazine's "Best Unsigned Band" contest, Ken offers up fourteen original songs featuring a lonely toll-taker, a man obsessed with setting world records, and a boy on the passenger side.

Group Members KEN SIEGERT (vocals, guitar, bass, keyboards, melodica, percussion, odds and ends) with guest artists: Jim Chapdelaine (guitar, bass, lap steel, dobro, banjo, backing vocals) Scott McDonald and Bob Forte (drums) Drew Glackin and Jeff Ladd (bass)
