They stayed friends and collaborators over the years, working together on movies like Role Models, Wet Hot American Summer, and Wanderlust and TV shows like Children’s Hospital, Medical Police, and of course The State. Ken also has acted in literally every television series, and currently stars on The Other Two (HBO) and Party Down (Starz). They are ALSO middle-aged dads and wannabe rockstars. So recently they got together with a group of other old friends (some dads, some not; some middle aged, some not) and started jamming, playing a diverse songbook of classic rock, pop, Motown, alt, New Orleans, favorites from the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s. When clips of these jam sessions went viral on social media, it led to some sold-out live shows in Los Angeles and San Francisco.Middle-Aged Dad Jam Band on Instagram / YoutubeVisit: artpower.ucsd.edu/event/middle-aged-dad-jam-band/
