"Walking on Broadway"
by Mark Kano
Rating: 4.5 out of 5
 
Own it on CD February 27, 2009!

     Mark Kano may be an unknown name to most, he was the voice of the 90's rock band, Athenaeum... after a long absence he's finally back and on his own with "Walking on Broadway". 
 
     Athenaeum was a band that had a huge impact on my life in the late 90's, and they're still a band I listen to frequently, so of course I was extremely ecstatic to hear that Mark Kano was finally releasing a solo CD.  Will it live up to my hopes and expectations?  Will the existing Athenaeum fans welcome Mark on his own?  Those two questions can easily be answered after just a few minutes into the CD (which will be released on February 27, 2009). 
 
     Not much has changed with Mark's sound, in fact if I didn't know any better, I would have sworn this was a new Athenaeum album.  Some will say that an artist not growing or changing over the years is a bad thing, but I do not, why change something that was nearly perfect in the first place?
 
So far "Walking on Broadway" is the best album of 2009, it may be a little early to tell since it's only February, but this will be a hard album to beat over the coming months.
