Ken Oak
Chief Producer
Ken is the leader of Oak and Gorski (formerly known as Ken Oak Band) that an American folk-rock music group based in California. Billboard Magazine described the Ken Oak Band as "soulful" and "calming". Oak and Gorski are an acoustic duo composed of Ed Gorski and Ken Oak. Commonly billed as a 'cello rock' act, they consistently captivate audiences with their unique combination of cello and acoustic guitar providing a minimalist backdrop for sincere songwriting. Ken has been included on the soundtrack to major motion pictureShe's the Man, completed five national tours and produced two albums under their own label, Cello Rock Records.
His debut album Symposium, released in October 2005, was the only album under this line up. The song "Inda" from Symposium was featured in the 2006 movie She's the Man, as well as in the film's soundtrack. Ken Oak and Ed Gorski continue performing under the name "Ken Oak Band", and in 2006, the duo released their own album, Vienna to Venice, while on their third national tour. The Ken Oak Band provided backing music for the Megan Lee song "Breathe Into Me". The band was also featured in Far*East Movement's album Folk Music in their song "Smile."
Ken is featured in Chinese American rapper Jin's Cantonese album ABC, in his song "Wun Lern Chon", where he plays the cello in the background. Early 2009 the band changed its name to "Oak & Gorski" and released their third album entitled Good Advice, Bad Advice.
