I met Ken Valdez last year at the NAMM show in Los Angeles. Ken is an accomplished guitarist and songwriter based in Minneapolis, MN. He has played with some absolutely astonishing artists, such as Buddy Guy, Billy F. Gibbons, The Black Crowes, BB King, The WallFlowers, Jeff Healey Band, Sammy Hagar, Cheap Trick, and Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers to name a few. Despite his increasingly impressive résumé, Ken is one of the nicest people I’ve had the pleasure to meet over the last few years. As always email jack@jackbarksdale.com for questions or show ideas.
