Ken Ridgley
"It's all about having a good time with the crowd. Having people come up on stage (if there is one), sing alongs, and social shots." - Ken Ridgley
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Ken Ridgley has been playing in the Baltimore, Maryland area since 2000. His shows consist mainly of acoustic covers of pop favorites from the 1960's to right now (with a few originals thrown in). You never know what you're going to get at a Ken Ridgley show because there is usually a special guest or two, but you can be certain to have a good time.

Primarily in Baltimore, MD; however, I have been known to do gigs in Western PA from time to time.

What equipment do you use?
Taylor Guitar, Mackie Power Amp, Yamaha Speakers, Shure Mics, and some Boss pedals.
