Cinematic music from Joe Kenney

Based in Philadelphia, pianist, composer and recording artist Joe Kenney draws on a range of styles such as classical music, jazz, rock, soul and hip hop to create his own sonic fusion. Over his decorated musical career, he’s received critical acclaim for both his original works and cover arrangements, extensive radio support for his productions and racked up a million streams of his music on Spotify alone.

Since unveiling his artistic vision in 2015 with the release of his debut album Afflictions and Remedies, he’s shared an astonishing catalogue of music that reveals his musicianship prowess and the depth of his creativity. Winning over fans and tastemakers with each work, as well as taking the Bronze Medal in the Global Music Awards for his fourth album, he’s collaborated with a whole host of other talented artists to add their own sonic flair to his style.

Following a successful 2022 that saw him share a string of stellar singles as well as another full-length record with the sixteen-track Reflections on Inner Transformation, he brings us his final release from the year with the track titled “Prevailing”.

This time linking up with violinist Hope Linton, on his new piece, Joe Kenney delivers a cinematic exploration of neo-classical style. The first composition in a series of nine pieces that will form his upcoming album set to be released later this year, “Prevailing” is a dazzling duet of piano and violin that flows beautifully to craft a dramatic and memorable instrumental sound.

As the two instruments weave between each other, they spin a captivating sound that invokes emotive connection and serves to showcase two talented performers while building the anticipation for Joe Kenney’s forthcoming record.
