Bio

The Wolvertons (Ken & Julia)  are an acoustic vocal /guitar and instrumental ( keyboards & drums) duo, also bass and psaltery.  Ken and Julia combine their individual talents and extensive musical backgrounds in the field, (rock, classical, blues, rock, country are some, in a wide range of styles.) One thing that makes The Wolvertons (Ken & Julia) so unique, is their working combination of such distinct backgrounds in music. Julia originally comes from a comprehensive classical background with a Master's in Piano, while Ken is on the other end of the spectrum, with an intense knowledge and experience of American music: blues, country, rock and roll. K&J continue playing together and performing around the country, and are slated to go on tour this April. Their "Songs of an Inspired Era" set lists include their own original songs and many favorites from the 60's and related eras, including those of: The Everly Brothers, Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, Shirelles and more. They have their own website: kenplusjulia.weebly.com and can be found on Facebook under Ken & Julia songs of an inspired era.
Renee P. , audience member writes:  "Julia! You and Ken put on a  wonderful performance.( at the Middletown Library)  I loved your diverse music choices and use of many instruments. You are both so talented. I also loved that you threw in some original work. You guys are a class act. 

Janet F writes: Ken and Julia presented a very enjoyable concert at the library of Middletown NJ. The program included songs by the Beatles and the Everly Brothers among others. There was a little blues, a show tune, some classical piano pieces played  by Julia and an original song by Ken,
"Standing Over There".
     It was nice to hear the Beatles' songs with harmony, the simple accompaniment of guitar and tambourine and an interesting instrument, the bowed Psaltery, played by Julia Muench.
     Julia commented that almost all the songs were love songs. Having a female and male singer who happened to be married to each other added to the intimacy of the performance.
     Ken's song was a nice surprise. It is a song not easily categorized in terms of genre. It had an eerie quality which was enhanced by the bowed Psaltery.
"Standing Over There".
  All and all it was a nicely balanced program and we would hope to see more of the Wolvertons in the future.
