KJ McNeil is the son of
Karl McNeil who is a Jazz and R&B musician who has toured and
recorded with some great artist like, Regina Belle, Bobby Womack,
Miles Jaye, Phil Perry, Donald Byrd, Teddy Pendergrass, Lou Rawls and
Gerald LeVert. KJ McNeil was a child prodigy. His father Karl McNeil
detected KJ’s keen ear and the ability to pick up music at the
tender age of 10 months. At the age of two KJ was entertaining other
musicians, by sitting in and jamming with them on his drums. That is
when other musician took notice of his growing talent. When he was 9
years old he became a professional musician. He subbed for another
drummer during one of his father’s gigs. KJ has also been a
professional jazz drummer since the age of 12 and has played with
many great jazz musicians and recording artists including his father
Karl McNeill Sr. KJ was selected to attend the Governor's School of
the Arts program in Delaware at the age of 15. While he was going to
school he continued to perform with the best jazz and R&B
recording artists and increasing his skill level. KJ McNeil is a
musician, vocalist, composer, and producer. KJ has two singles out
called "Where U Start" and "The Sense of Leave”
these songs are on the “I’m Music” album, soon to be released.
KJ is one talented artist he wrote, produced, provided all vocals and
recorded all live instrumentation on all of his songs. I’m looking
forward to hearing his entire album. If there are other songs like
"Where U Start" and "The Sense of Leave” on the
album, KJ McNeil’s album is going on my playlist. I think this
brother is a talent and a well-rounded musician that can sing. I hope
we will be hearing from KJ McNeil for years to come.
