Presenting Bernie Game (The Art of the EWI), the newest release on his own Bernup label, Bernie Kenerson brings listeners a contemporary Jazz/Groove record with innovation at its core. The foremost authority of the AKAI EWI 4000s (thatâs synth heaven for horn players), Kenerson has been progressing as an electric wind instrumentalist for 30 years nowâand it shows.

Bernie Game showcases the chops of a veteran jazzer composing with a maturity not often heard in contemporary âelectricâ Jazz. Kenerson explains, âI definitely came of age as a player during the âfusion revolutionâ era of the 70s, and youâll hear that influence both in my playing and in my composition. But what I took away most from that music was its accessibility everyone can dig it! I think thatâs a quality weâre starting to see again in contemporary Jazz, and Iâm doing what I can to turn people on to some new, funky sounds.â

Funky, indeed! Kenersonâs virtuosic command of the EWI assures us that it is far from novelty or gimmickâthis is a serious player with a unique voice that does more than make a statement; listeners fortunate enough to hear what Bernie Game has to offer will undoubtedly ask, âMore, please?â

HIs new CD release âBernie Gameâ (The Art of the EWI) is set to take the Smooth Jazz world by storm. There are 8 new originals and 2 surprise covers that are some of the smoothest and jazziest to hit in awhile. In Bernieâs hands the EWI seems like it was made for Smooth Jazz. At a recent show in Charleston, South Carolina a new fan was heard saying, âI love the sound of the EWI. It like, massaged my brain.â For the newest smooth and sophisticated sounds in jazz check out the new CD âBernie Gameâ from world-class EWI master Bernie Kenerson.
