Ken Hicks

Ken started playing trumpet professionally in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area at the age of 15. He attended UTA and North Texas University as a Music Education major and was in the North Texas Lab Band Program. After a brief stint as a band director in Mansfield, Ken joined the U.S. Navy in 1967 and was Lead Trumpet and Soloist for the Navy Band for 4 years. After release from U.S. Navy, Ken formed a group named "StreetLife" that traveled the U.S. for 15 years during the "disco" era.

After returning to this area, Ken met and married his wife Pam and now has two sons, Sean and Steven, and two grandchildren, Connor and Kaitlyn. Soon after they married, Ken was asked to play for Eagle Mountain Church by his Guitar player of many years, Stan Nixon who had been saved and was now in Ministry there as Senior Adult Pastor. Ken realized that God had protected him all those "road years" to be a part of the Music Ministry. Ken was saved there and served for 7 years as a Graphic Designer on the magazine staff and as a music arranger, as well as a musician on Bass, Trumpet, and vocals with Kenneth Copeland Ministries and Eagle Mountain Church in Newark, Texas. After leaving KCM, Ken served as Praise and Worship Leader for 6 years at Mount Olive Ministry Center in Arlington, Texas. Ken most recently ministered at Fellowship of the Metroplex in Arlington, Texas for 3 years on Keyboards, Bass, Trumpet and as a vocal soloist.

Ken is now playing locally and teaching private lessons for trumpet, piano, and drums at Main Street School of Music in downtown Arlington. Ken performs on trumpet/flugelhorn, Bass, keyboards and vocals. Jazz and contemporary styles are his specialties.
