On the next episode of Marti’s Music Kitchen, we’re with Ken DeRouchie, talking about his high-energy, 8-piece Funk, Soul and R&B band, the 5th Annual Ken DeRouchie Band Food Drive, and his delicious and accessible brand of Southern Creole cooking. “I decided 5 years ago that I wanted to try to do something for the community. The thing that I kind of latched on to was the Oregon Food Bank. I think we got about eighteen hundred pounds of food donated last year, and then we had close to $2500 in donations,” says Ken. “So that, for just the one year, the total came out to something like 12,000 meals.”What culinary secrets and song-writing super-powers does Ken have to share? Find out Friday, October 19th, on the next Marti’s Music Kitchen on Oregon Music News.com, Marti Mendenhall.com and all things podcast!http://OregonMusicNews.comhttp://www.kdband.net/http://MartiMendenhall.comhttp://Patreon.com/MartiMendenhall
