Hey there, I’m Danny Beach! Picture this: You’re chilling at your favorite spot, and who’s strumming that guitar, making you tap your feet? That’s right, it’s me! I’ve been playing my heart out at restaurants, Tiki bars, and all sorts of shindigs in Southwest Florida for over 20 years.
Home is where the heart is, and mine’s anchored right in Charlotte Harbor, Florida. I’ve rocked venues all the way from St. Pete to Naples, and let me tell you, it’s been one heck of a ride. I’m not just any musician; I’ve got a guitar that practically plays itself, a voice that’ll serenade you, and a harmonica that’s as sweet as Florida oranges. Need some chill vibes or a rockin’ night? I’m your guy! I’ve got all the tunes we all love – from James Taylor to ZZ Top – and I’m all about those special requests.
Here’s a fun fact: I used to fight fires in Washington D.C.! Now, I’ve swapped my firefighter boots for a captain’s hat, mastering the seas around the Gulf of Mexico when I’m not jamming out.
Want to catch me live? Swing by places like the Sandbar in Englewood, or maybe find me at Twisted Fork in Port Charlotte. I’m all over the place, including Punta Gorda’s finest spots like Harpoon Harry’s. So, come on down, bring your friends, and let’s have a blast with some great music. Can’t wait to see ya!

Kenny Rose is a singer/songwriter from a little town in Michigan called Union Lake. He worked at his family car business as he and his bride raised their 4 children. Though the business was good to them, he always had the dream of some day playing music for a living. That dream came true in 2004 when they sold the business and Kenny and Tammy moved to Florida’s gulf coast, settling in another little town called Englewood. He has been “living the dream” ever since and his songwriting reflects that lifestyle.
His first C.D. “Take A Chance” was released in 2004. The music on this all original C.D. was more in the pop contemporary feel. As he began living in Florida his songs took on a much more Trop Rock feel, and his second C.D. “Sunshine State of Mind” released in April 2010 certainly reflects that. All but one of the tracks are original compositions, and his songs “Driving Down Here is Driving me to Drinking” and “The Grandparent’s Song” have become staples in the area. He also has had 3 of his songs in a motion picture that was available on Amazon prime for a few years.
Kenny’s shows can be very interactive if the crowd is right for it, handing out percussion instruments and getting everyone to sing along is his favorite thing to do. He has an over 300 song repertoire and he hands out books so the crowd can see what he plays and ask for requests. He doesn’t use any backing tracks or pre recorded music, so he can be spontaneous and go wherever the crowd wants him to go! His mic and guitar are wireless so he is free to roam around and get everyone involved. He is enjoying his musical life and plays 5 to 7 shows a week in the Englewood and Venice area, playing mostly covers of 60’s and 70’s songs, however with 300 songs you can be sure he has a few from most era’s that you’ll know. Known as one of the “hardest working musicians in town” Kenny just laughs and says “I play music, keyword is PLAY.”

When you hear the name “Jumpin’ Fences” you can relate that to a band that knows no boundaries due to the collection of talent and experience of its members.

Rock solid in SW Florida for going on 8 years together, the band is made up of these seasoned professionals.
Rudy Cox: A force to be reckoned with either as a solo act or with the band, Rudy is a well respected singer, songwriter and instrumentalist. With several original hits at the top of the A1A Radio and Trop Rock charts, he brings passion for entertaining and engaging the audience with his vocal range and personality.
Bill Bostwick: A member of the Ohio Blues Players Hall of Fame, Bills finger picking is matchless. When you think of lead guitar, you think Bill. An accomplished luthier, Bill is often seen picking one of his many home-built guitars or shredding a PRS. It doesn’t matter if it’s a soulful ballad or a rocking shredder, Bill is on point every time.
Kevin Farnsworth: Every band has that one member who’s engaging personality rounds things out to complete the package. Master of the big strings, Kevin’s vast experience with music spans a lifetime and is a high demand session player which speaks volumes to his ability and excellence on the bass.
Chris Caglioti: One of the most solid “in-the-pocket” drummers in this area. Chris lays down the beat with the most important qualities a live setting drummer can possess, knowing when to play and when not to play. Chris’ experience also spans many years in different settings and is frequently asked as a guest artist for other local bands regularly. When the need arises, Chris is also a formidable blues harmonica player which adds a tasty flair to the kit when called for.
