Album Notes

"Uninvited Guest," the debut CD of the multi-talented Kenny White is something very much worth investigating. Once you've rolled up your sleeves and gotten in there, you will emerge as if you've just been on an amazing journey.

Equally heartbreaking and humorous, these are songs written in a very unique voice. The matters of the heart have been explored from A to Z, yet when your ear catches the poetry here, you feel as if you may be hearing these stories for the first time. These songs will show just how multi-faceted an organ the heart is.

Featured artists on the CD:

Marc Cohn
Shawn Colvin
Peter Wolf
Larry Campbell (Bob Dylan band)
Shawn Pelton (Saturday Night Live)
Duke Levine (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
and many other of NY's finest soulful players.

some other reviews:

Kenny has taken his vast amount of energy for spotlighting others and has turned that light on his own heart this time. The CD, "Uninvited Guest," is the technical culmination of many fruitful years as composer, songwriter, studio musician, and producer, and the emotional culmination of some less successful journeys, brought to you here in crystalline detail.

Associated with some extremely successful CDs and films, Kenny has now found both the desire and clarity to undertake this work of his own. It blueprints a need to find joy under contentment, strength under fear, and does so with humor, perspective, and precision. Each of these stones that is turned over reveals a new gift that is as infectious as it is compelling. "Uninvited Guest" is a work of heart and soul to which anyone, in a small or huge way, can relate.

Not many artists have the capacity to be melodic, intelligent and direct all at the same time. Kenny is one of the few. He has clearly been steeped in music and self-inflicted torture for so long that he is able to combine haunting melody with acid poetry and still almost effortlessly say exactly what's on his mind. For all its darkness, this is a joyful record. The musicianship and arrangements produce a passion and energy that is uplifting. And Kenny's voice is so sweet and vulnerable that you'll forgive him anything.
