Description

Mikey Kenney is an original. A passionate and well-respected advocate for
traditional music ? a brilliant Liverpool-style fiddler drawing primarily on his native
North West English and Irish heritage ? but grounded in a present-day, urban
reality.

He is a musician with wide-open horizons and insatiable curiosity for new
possibilities. As evidenced on his latest album, The Reverie Road (Penny Fiddle
Records), Kenney?s songwriting is both adventurous and earth-bound, with his high
lonesome voice exploring sun-drenched Italian vistas, dream worlds and sounds of
the city.

Mikey is currently working on a new album, due for release in autumn 2023. For
album tour shows, Mikey performs unaccompanied or in duo/trio formats.
With a reputation for both making quality music and producing wondrous flourishes
of creativity, Kenney is also a multi-talented and in-demand collaborator, including,
formerly, with band Of Burns, and now, with his electric trio World Turned Upside
Down, as well as playing with BBC 6 Music favourite, Alabaster DePlume and Italian
singer-songwriter, Vinicio Capossela. Mikey is also Musical Director of the
Lancashire Youth Folk Ensemble.

?This is magical, medicinal music that defies labels and borders? Liverpool Echo

?Mikey Kenney is an artist for whom music is a calling, not a career choice?a
singular and inspiring talent... unfettered by expectations of geography or
genre, and a wanderer of worlds both seen and invisible, Kenney is an
authentic free spirit?. fRoots
