While based in Nashville for almost 30 years, Sizemore performed as a solo artist, as part of the folk duo "Judith and Ken" and with the folk trio "The Folk Revival". He has played in thousands of concerts, churches, clubs, listening rooms, coffee houses, banquets, and festivals throughout the United States over the years.
