As a kid in New York, Kenny Vance was captivated by the magic of rock'n roll. At fifteen he was hanging around the Brill Building meeting other singers and songwriters and eventually formed the successful group Jay and The Americans. They went on to record fifteen albums, tour extensively and open for The Beatles and The Rolling Stones for each of their first U.S. performances Kenny remained with Jay and The Americans throughout their entire eleven-year career. In the years that followed, Kenny began an expansive career that kicked off with producing the first record for Walter Becker and Donald Fagen - Steely Dan. Kenny Vance went on to compose, supervise and produce a long list of scores and soundtracks for feature films and television giving the Alan Freed story, "American Hot Wax," its musical life by recreating the groups of the 50's and 60's for the screen. The Planotones were formed for the film and gave their first on-screen performance. In addition, Vance was musical director for Saturday Night Live and music supervisor for "Animal House," "Eddie & The Cruisers," and "Looking For An Echo." As an actor Kenny has appeared in "Hurly Burly," "Billy Bathgate," "American Hot Wax," "Eddie & The Cruisers," and in several Woody Allen films. Kenny's passion is singing and throughout a long and successful career in the entertainment industry he would never lose his love and need to sing. He re-formed The Planotones in 1992 and has brought this passion, along with his soulful vocals to new heights. Of all Kenny Vance's hits, he likes to hit the high notes best. His range, clarity and emotional fidelity lead The Planotones to a musical paradise.
