KENNISTON LANE

Kenniston Lane was an idea I had while realizing that as a craftsman, I was becoming less interested in designing and building for clients and their specific requirements, and more interested in creating my own designs that others may enjoy. In fact, this coincided with this same impulse I had as a musician. For the last 25 years I have been swinging back and forth in two careers, composer/guitarist, and furniture/cabinet maker. Both are creative pursuits I enjoy immensely. Most of my music career has been spent composing and producing for television. But as the industry has changed, I have found the work less rewarding, less lucrative, while still intensely competitive. So now I make records. And as a woodworker, I am more interested in building what I love, beautifully crafted, traditionally handmade furniture of my design, drawing from American traditions of New England, both coastal and country. Kenniston and Lane are family names on my mother's side steeped in New England history...
