Contemporary Solo Pianist Dan Kennedy has performed in 21 U.S. states, and Québec province. Since his Will Ackerman-produced EP LANTERN was released in 2007, Dan has received play on 250 radio stations, and over 725,000 internet spins. Winner of a 2022 Global Music Award, a 2022 Native American Music Award (with Ancient Voices), a 2d place SoloPiano.com nod for his Christmas album AN ENCHANTED NOËL, and the 2019 Enlightened Piano Radio Album of the Year, his recordings have spent as many as 7 consecutive months on the ZMR Top 100. Classically trained as well as a member of Whisperings, Dan resides in an 1860 farmhouse in rural Massachusetts. Since composing Solo Piano music since the mid-1980s, Kennedy has developed one of the more distinctive voices in his genre. Melody and harmony are central, with soul-stirring meditation and movement always percolating. Hell, and he can rock, too, if it's called for. Generally Dan approaches his concerts with a conservatory-trained formal sensibility, though along the way overlays sparkling melodies and flashes of unexpected improvisation. “The pain, the sadness, the joy, the love, the piano is how I try to make sense of it all.”
