In this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I speak with my friend, Kenny Head, a talented musician and keyboard player. We reminisce about how we met and the years of playing music together. Kenny shares his experiences playing with different bands and emphasizes the importance of enjoying the gigs and appreciating fellow musicians. We also discuss his musical influences like Floyd Cramer, Chuck Leavell, and Billy Preston. Kenny reflects on his early years as a musician and his move to Tampa. We also discuss his gigs with artists like John Berry and The Georgia Satellites.
We recall past gigs, the talented musicians we've played with, the challenges of performing live, and the importance of staying sharp and prepared. Kenny shares his approach to playing piano and the significance of ear training. We discuss the influence of artists like Joni Mitchell and Crosby, Stills, and Nash on our music. The conversation ends with a heartfelt appreciation for each other and a desire to continue playing music together.
