Ken Hitchcock

Ken Hitchcock was our friend, our mentor, and the driving force behind this album. He was a Master among the greatest musicians of our time. His unique career and legacy is an impressive trophy for a man as humble, and as giving, and as kind as Ken. We miss him deeply. This album is Ken Hitchcock’s final recording. We dedicate this to him, our brother!
