Local Singer/Songwriter Set to Appear in Fanwood Sunday

Fanwood - The Fanwood Arts Council will present Los Angeles Music Award winning singer/songwriter Kenny Woods in a free public concert on Sunday, March 20th, 3-4 p.m. at the Kuran Arts Center, formerly the Fanwood Carriage House, on Watson Road off 75 North Martine Ave in Fanwood. Woods won the Portland Songwriters Association Contest, received an honorable mention by Billboard and has been featured on the American Idol website.

Woods will perform his signature wedding song, "Thankful For You" which has over 350,000 views on YouTube and is performed at weddings around the world. The solo acoustic performance will feature Woods singing everything from his dark night of the soul ballads to rabble-rousing pop and accompanying himself on keyboard and acoustic guitar.

"My writing of late has also been inspired by fantasy, myth and legend including songs for Middle-Earth and Camelot," says Woods, whose song for the Hobbit is currently on his YouTube page: youtube.com/kennywoods.

"Kenny's songs are filled with meaning, and the way he sings is heartfelt. His voice and musical talent are exceptional, and the devotion he has for what he does comes across to all who listen. I'm particularly impressed by the songs he writes. It is clear he has a lot to offer the world of music," says Bonnie Schechter of Summit.

Join Kenny Woods for an enlightening hour of soul-stirring songs, stories and laughter. The show starts at 3 PM on Sunday, March 20th at the Kuran Arts Center, formerly the Fanwood Carriage House, on Watson Road off North Martine Ave, adjacent to Fanwood Borough Hall (GPS use 75 N. Martine Avenue).
