About Kenny

Acosta and his band The House Reckers. This year makes 40 years in the music industry for this highly talented
Baton Rouge Blues Icon. In Kenny's illustrious career, he has played with
all the greats; Muddy Waters, Bobby Bland, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Kim Wilson, Taj
Mahal, Roy Buchanan, The Neville Brothers and so many more it is mind boggling
even to him.
Kenny's latest CD "Full Moon On Blues Street" is produced by award winning producer Johnny Sandlin. All reviews have been very positive. This is a very powerful Blues album and worthy of your time and consideration.
On June 11th, 2005 Mayor Kip Holden of Baton Rouge proclaimed Kenny Acosta Day in honor of the release of his last CD "Spanish Town Mardi Gras".
In 2003 Mayor Bobby Simpson of Baton Rouge made Kenny honorary Mayor for a day at Baton Rouge's Fest For All on the Blues Stage during Blues Week; the first such award bestowed upon a Baton Rouge Blues man, ever. Kenny won the Baton Rouge Blues Society Blues Challenge in 2003 and represented the Baton Rouge Blues Society in January 2004 at the International Blues Competition held in Memphis, Tennessee.

Kenny has established himself as a master bluesman in all his travels from the Florida Keys to Fairbanks, Alaska and all points in between. Kenny and the band will take you on a musical ride. At a moments notice Kenny's grooving down Funk Street, swinging over to Latin Parkway, recollecting on Oldies Cove, or ripping down R&B Lane.
It is a proven fact a good product is easy to sell. Kenny Acosta may be the product you've been waiting for! His soulful voice and scorching guitar are combined with a tight and funky rhythm section that is one of the best ever to come out of South Louisiana. Also, for more intimate venues catch Kenny in a very memorable acoustic show.
Yes, Kenny "has been lots of places and done lots of things", but bottom line is, he will entertain you with professionalism and his charisma.
