Wildflower Records KENNY WHITE
singer/songwriter 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE January 20, 2010

Kenny White’s ‘Comfort in the Static’ Follows the Human Condition with Unbridled Detail and Humor  

New Album Set For February 16, 2010 (Wildflower Records)


  “There are periods when you’re not always willing to look into your heart and take inventory. But, in time, that day does come, and if you can give an honest account of what you find in there, you’ll come out with something true.” ~ Kenny White

Comfort in the Static is the long-awaited newest release from the experiential Wildflower Records singer/songwriter Kenny White. It is a collection of eleven wonderfully crafted songs which leads the listener on an intimate odyssey, the spotlight focused on our commonality as humans. From the first haunting melody of the opening track, “Useless Bay,” which begins as if White were letting us in on a bittersweet secret, to the catchy pop sensibility of the beautifully melodic “Please.” From the Dylan-esque sound of “Who’s Gonna Be the One,” to the plaintive musings of ‘I was fine until love got in the way’ from “Where You Are Tonight,” Comfort in the Static is an arrestingly candid and personal collection of songs.

Early praise for Comfort in the Static…
“I'd have to say that Kenny White has earned a place among my favorite singer-songwriters...and particularly, lyricists. As we say in the trade "he goes deep." A true wordsmith AND musician who reveals a fine sense of humor, as well. Put on your headphones and listen carefully”
~ David Crosby

White’s Comfort in the Static is soulful singer-songwriting at its best; lush piano melodies combined with vulnerable vocals and smart, insightful lyrics make for a seminal recording that observes the boundaries between jazz, blues, rock, pop and folk…and then proceeds to step over them. With such seasoned, interpretive musicians as Duke Levine, Shawn Pelton and Marty Ballou backing him up, as well as the contributions of Big Al Anderson and ubiquitous T-Bone Burnett collaborator, Stephen Barber, White wrote and produced this new album with the listener in mind.
