Brendan Kavanagh

Brendan Kavanagh (born October 1967), also known as "Dr K" due to his Ph.D. in English, is a British pianist and piano teacher. He specializes in playing and promoting the boogie-woogie genre, almost exclusively improvised, often combined with classical, jazz, blues, rock & roll, and traditional Irish music themes. He regularly performs in open venues on public pianos, sometimes in duet formats with musically inclined passers-by, friends or family. He also plays the piano accordion, with emphasis on traditional Irish tunes.
