Biography

This long time veteran comedian, actor, musician, singer is a welcome addition to any staged event... (Concert, Corporate, Comedy Club or Golf Tournament Gala.) Kenny Davis began as a 60's guitar playing folk-singer and surfer, playing bars and clubs around San Diego, CA and on the So Cal beaches. He formed a folk group (The Red Mountain Boys) in Avalon, Catalina in the 60's that became a traveling show band in the 70's that moved from Los Angeles, CA clubs to many, many years in the casino showrooms and lounges of Las Vegas, Reno, and Lake Tahoe, Nevada. The Kenny Davis Road Show was voted "Lounge Act of the Year - 1977" in Las Vegas by the other lounge acts on the strip. In 1978, Kenny Bob was asked by Eddie Rabbitt to open for two concerts as a solo stand up comedian in front of 6500 fans at the Montana State Fair. He was an instant hit and he loved it so much that he has since opened many, many top concerts and main room shows for such stars as the legendary George Burns, Willie Nelson, Ramsey Lewis, Kenny Rogers, Roy Clark, Vince Gill, and Larry Gatlin & The Gatlin Brothers to name a few. In the past 28 years, Kenny Bob has headlined all over the U.S. as a solo stand-up comedian, or a one-man corporate showman and is a regularly invited USO performer for our military men and women aboard several aircraft carriers at sea and for our U.S. Marines in the field. (He is a veteran USMC Corpsman) In 1980, Larry Gatlin opened many doors for KBD into Top Celebrity Golf Events and PGA and LPGA Pro-Ams. He did so many Golf events that he was nicknamed the "Golf Comic" and "America's Golf Guest" during the 80's and 90's by many PGA players and fellow entertainers.... KBD has performed at or played in over 325 Charity and PGA/LPGA Tour events. You've seen him on Television many times in National commercials and in film and TV productions such as Gremlins, ER, Zach & Cody, Sisters, Murder She Wrote, Bing Microsoft as Santa....and many more... KBD released his fourth live album, "A Vegas Souvenir" in 2008. (Recorded at the Las Vegas Harrah's Improv) He is still going strong in all areas and is a totally self contained package for any event. With no retirement in sight, KBD's career is still based on a phrase he learned from his hero, Mr. George Burns, after opening for the legendary entertainer in concert in 1988. A very wise George told KBD..."There is nothing I love more than performing. If you love what you do, you'll never work a day in your life!" Kenny Bob still loves what he does after all these years....Just ask his friends, his bands, his clients, and the people who love to come and see him not work!
