In addition to having the great distinction of being a cousin of the legendary Dizzy Gillespie, world traveling pianist and keyboardist Ken Powe is a true Renaissance Man who has worked in multiple genres besides Smooth Jazz (hip hop, hard bop, fusion, gospel), and is a published author/novelist and has acted on TV. He follows his multi-faceted 2023 album ON THE LEVEL with the beautiful, light bearing “Kiss the Morning,” a grand, classic-styled elegant and easy flowing, funk ballad with glistening grand piano keys and dazzling glissandos reflective of Powe’s background as a concert pianist. Fans of Brian Culbertson will love the blend of beauty and groove which is designed to evoke images of waking up to a sunrise, smitten by love.
