Advance review for Look What I Made!
"What a treasure! It's like Bob Dylan and Jerry Lewis rolled into the same blintz!"
— BMI recording artist Randall Steven Smith
Ken Turetzky comedy music debuts on Sirius Howard 100-101
Ken Turetzky performs original, bad-attitude folk- and blues-based acoustic comedy at venues in and around Dallas, Texas, and occasionally in Terre Haute, Indiana. Inspired by public dismay in reaction to his first CD, Look What I Made!, Ken confidently offered the disc to radio.
Surprisingly, the strategy worked. Ken recently cracked the Sirius Satellite Radio Howard Stern/Howard 100-101 channels with an appearance on the Red Peters Show. His music is featured on the Sirius Raw Dog Comedy Channel and numerous broadcast and Web outlets.
Syndicated radio host Dr. Demento calls the CD "a riot!" and has featured Ken on his Funny Five weekly countdown. TM Century Comedy Network has distributed Ken's music nationally via its weekly radio prep service. Ken's heard frequently on morning drive and college radio, on iTunes via Khaha.com, on DFSX Comedy Radio, .977 AllComedy, and numerous podcasts.
Live audiences know Ken's work as well. For four years, crowds at Starbucks and many comedy clubs, crummy bars and coffee houses you've never heard of have politely endured the uptempo blues of Ken's My Fat Ass Itches and recoiled from the unromantic ballad, Her Shit Don't Stink.
Ken's seductive melodies, punctuated with his better-than-adequate guitar work and searing harmonica notes, support the clever lyrics of Today Was A Very Good Day, Don't Really Matter and If They Found Me Dead, the other sardonic songs on Look What I Made! The CD is available on CD Baby and iTunes.
As a journalist, Ken has covered the National Basketball Association for prominent print, online and broadcast outlets, and interviewed such personalities as Bill Cosby, Larry King and James Brown. Comedy music provides a welcome opportunity for Ken to promote his own gig for a change.
