As We Walk Records
Kenny Martin carries a message of hope, dignity and love with humor and compassion. His music is a fusion of rock and jazz influences filtered through a variety of keyboards, kick-in rhythm section, and a smoking saxophone. His vocal style and harmonies are reminiscent of rock greats, while taking you to new heights in contemporary music.
The International recording artist KENNY MARTIN had released a previous stellar classic rock/jazz CD "Tomorrows Memory" on As We Walk Records. The CD was characterized by fine songwriting and melodies, rocking guitar, deft keyboards, tender ballads, and pop sensibilities. Radio and listeners were enthralled by such choice cuts as Crazy, Time and St. Mark's.
"Tomorrow's Memory" by Kenny Martin is a well blended classic rock/jazz CD embracing Brazilian flare. The lead vocals are smooth and subtle while the harmonies on select tracks enrich the musical tonality. The balancing mix of instruments produces a relaxing, never overpowering, sound quality. This relaxing sound quality provides an effective backdrop to the generally positive and uplifting lyrics. The synth in "A Thousand Years of Magic" provides smooth strings with a catchy scaled riff just before the chorus. Upbeat and dancing is "The Golden Highway" with a tight drum beat and piano complementing the Brazilian fusion. You'll really enjoy this CD if you're in the mood for classic rock/jazz infused with syncopated Brazilian rhythms.

Tomorrow's Memory
by Charlene Lucko Rating: 10
Tomorrow's Memory is truly a magnificent piece of work by this artist, Kenny Martin has a superior songwriting style that speaks of our changing world. This is some of the best music I have heard on the radio or anywhere in a long time, what better way do we have than to kick off our new era of national change by including Kenny's positive and inspirational lyrics.
Kenny Martin came from an unknown part of the galaxy and landed on this planet in 1967 near a small island close to Detroit, Michigan called Gross Ile. Kenny instantly had an affinity for music and started playing the piano at the age of four. At the time, Kenny was inspired by The Beatles, Yes, Emerson, Lake, and Palmer, and Todd Rungren. At the age of seven, Kenny became more serious and was inspired by Chick Corea, Gino Vannelli and George Duke. His first gig came at the age of eighteen playing the piano at The Montauk Yatch Club. He then attended Ithaca College where he studied music and broadcasting. By this time, Steely Dan had become a big influence on Kenny and he became more of a writer and singer. Kenny played in a number of bands and ended up in Montreal where he started making more serious albums, including his critically-acclaimed CD "As We Walk." After playing in Montreal and Toronto, Canada, Kenny has returned to Las Vegas ready to hit the big-time with "Tomorrow's Memory" and to play LIVE on the Famous Las Vegas Strip.

I love to listen to this album while I'm driving. Recently, I noticed myself humming and singing the soothing melodies and catchy lyrics while sitting at my desk at work. This CD was a natural for me and makes me feel great. Thanks Kenny!
As We Walk
by G. Richardson Cook Rating: 10
I love this album. Not simply because I know the artist but because it speaks in lyrical truths about the human spirit. The album begins with a rocking, jazz influenced greeting "Welcome" setting the tone for a novella of moving songs that follow. One of my favorites is "Didn't We" which takes us on a journey into our past and the memorable good things we acomplished there. Listening to this song made me happy to be a part of the human race and set a path to the future where we can do good things over and over again. Treat yourself to a remarkable experience in the human condition; hope, sanity and a way to go forward in truth. Listen to this album.

I thought this CD was truly exceptional, in fact the song As We Walk -brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it for it's melodic and deep feeling. It delivers a message that's important. I highly recommend this CD to be listened to. The band is great and I especially enjoyed the female back up voices that are on the last few songs.This artist really deserves to go somewhere!
