(Washington, D.C.) Kenny Wesley, the North Carolina born, D.C.-based artist is known for his impressive vocal range, his love for other cultures (he speaks 5 languages), and as a passionate purveyor of ballads who has opened shows for the likes of Alice Smith, Stephanie Mills, Carl Thomas and Anthony David. But he's taking a turn for the funkier on his official DEBUT album, "The Real Thing," his collaboration with L.A.-based Noah Lifschey, widely respected within the industry as a prolific producer of sizzling music for TV shows such as "America's Best Dance Crew" and the MTV Movie and Music Awards programs. Since teaming up in the summer of 2011, Kenny and Noah have taken the funk feel of the 70's and created a remarkably hip and progressive hybrid of sorts.
Pre-sales are available NOW for a limited time at a discounted rate of $1.07.
