KEN SAVAGE Lead vocals and incredible guitar solos are all in a days work for the Boss Man of this 9 piece horn band. Ken's musical travels have literally taken him around the world. He has toured with nationally acclaimed bands and even done a European stint, to leading The Best Kept Secret through the transition from a blues band to a full nine-piece show band. Ken's impressive stable of guitars includes his main axe, The "Ken Savage Model" 6120 Gretsch, two Gretsch White Falcons, a Gibson ES-335, and many more that we may never see in concert. He explains that they are his retirement... yeah, OK!! Whatever you say. All we know is, he sure can play them all!!!!!
