KENNETH L.
KEMP
Kenneth L. Kemp is an accomplished singer/songwriter, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, DJ, producer, engineer, and video editor from Dallas, TX who has called San Francisco home since 2012. After writing and producing his first album at 18, he and his band Binary Sunrise were taken under the wing of Polyphonic Spree leader Tim DeLaughter, who promoted that recording as the first release from his label, Good Records Recordings. In San Francisco, Kenneth aligned himself with the queer punk rock scene in rock clubs and the gay disco revival in dance clubs, serving as lyricist, vocalist, and co-producer of local favorites Club Meds, in addition to spinning records for numerous events and parties throughout the Bay Area. In addition to various musical endeavors, Kenneth has been involved in various film and video projects dating back to 1997. Having a voracious appetite for music, film, and literature, Kenneth L. Kemp spends his time both absorbing and celebrating various forms of media, and then exploring fresh ways to leap forward into exciting and unknown creative paths. Unicorn Breeding Ground is a new opportunity for Kenneth and Keith to work with emerging artists and try something new and different, in this new and different world.
