Americanafest put on a one-of-a-kind tribute show where distinguished members of the East Nashville community pay homage to each other’s bodies of work through song.

Americanafest Artists who preformed included Carl Anderson, Reuben Bidez, Kirby Brown, Creamer, JP Harris, Jon Latham, Nikki Lane, Ruby Boots, Mando Saenz, Kashena Sampson, Zach Schmidt, Caroline Spence, Patrick Sweany, Allen Thompson, Seth Walker, Emily West, Brandy Zdan and more special guests. The evening’s festivities was hosted by Whiskey Wolves of the West with production and musical direction provided by Chase McGillis. Everyone was so awesome! What a great event!

Last nights Comrades in Song Americanafest show at Basement East last night was an awesome way to support, enjoy and for us discover local East Nashville artists and they are all beyond amazing.

Stand outs were definitely Whiskey Wolves of the West – who played with every artist including Emily West (we didn’t even realize who she was at the time – she was on America’s got Talent 2014 – so happy to see she’s performing still and sounding fantastic we really like her). Then Creamer – omg – is amazing in so many ways… the guy brings back the intensity and beauty of the 70s artist in voice and style and we just fell in love with him. We can say that coz were were there in the 70s hehe. So I’m currently obsessing about him. He moved to Nashville to record his first solo album (which he’s just about to release) so hopefully we’ll get to see him perform out and about a lot! You can also follow him on instagram and facebook.

We are pretty excited about attending our first Americana festival this year – seeing as we are in Nashville now. We’ve always mean to go but it was always so far to go from California and with hotel rooms etc etc we never quite made it before. So we are going all out and trying to figure out how to be able to go to as much as possible as there is a LOT. We even splurged on getting tickets to the awards show at the Ryman. Everyone said it was well worth it so we are super excited about that… Jason Isbell is up for an award again of course and he’s a favorite of ours and we’ll also be seeing him at the Ryman in October for a whole week.

Thinking of Recording?

Are you thinking of recording a song – whether finished or partially finished, Kenny can help you fully complete your song. The finished product is a quality fully mastered song ready for cd production or a very high quality demo song you can pitch.

Do you wish you had a band or a team to work with to help you with creating your music, or to help you realize the unique potential of your songs?

If you are limited in the sounds that you yourself can produce but you’ve imagined your songs with other instruments or a full band to expand beyond just you and your guitar or keyboard, you’ve come to the right place!

Or have you already recorded tracks and just want some additional instruments and orchestration? Maybe you just need a killer mix that’ll take your music to the next level and compete with or exceed the best commercial mixes in the industry?

To get the high quality, industry standard professional recordings you are looking for,
you would need:
+ a producer
+ a variety of other musicians
+ a recording engineer
+ a mixing engineer
+ a mastering engineer

It can get, expensive and complicated working with that many people. BUT, what if you could get all that with just one person?

Taking your stripped down songs and ideas to a full band or fully orchestrated arrangement that is unique to your personality and artistry is Kenny Schick’s specialty. Kenny becomes your team, your creative support, your genius producer, your personal multi-instrumental session musician, your geeky recording engineer and your mixing expert, all while creating a fun environment.

Kenny can help you realize what is possible for your songs and help you achieve it. In the studio he can help you capture your best performance and then produce yours songs so it sounds exactly how you imagined or even better.

There is also a mobile option for recording –  Kenny will come to you and record you in your home, rehearsal space or favorite location.
