New Sacred Cow  - Kenna's released their latest album in 2003.  Check out more at KennaKenna.com.

   The music scene ushers in a new sound, and it goes by the name of Kenna.

   A lot of times good artists go unnoticed, and you can add Kenna to the pile. Unbeknownst to America, one of the most original artists of the new millennium has been sleeping under our noses. 

   Kenna crosses all bounds with his fresh, vibrant, soul-touching, heart-pumping and feet-moving sound. His genre of music, which is beyond difficult to determine, features traces of hip hop, alternative, techno, ambient, electronica, neo-soul and new wave, all embedded within his music. It’s hard to pick one, so let’s just go with damn good music.

   The background of the new Playstation Portable commercial features the lead single “Control,” from Kenna’s upcoming album “Face." The commercial consists of a guy in search of a girl, whom he met the previous night. She leaves a memory stick on his pillow, filled with clues to determine her location. He eventually finds her at a Kenna concert.

   The makers of Playstation products have all caught onto his genius and are giving him his due. Now the time has come for the rest of the world to do the same.

   While you wait in anticipation for his new album “Face” debut, check out his previously recorded album “New Scared Cow.”

   Released in the midst of the pop craze, “New Scared Cow” was before its time. Each track has a life of its own and takes the listener to different places. Listening to this album will leave you wondering why you’ve never heard of this guy; please prepare to be amazed.
