Ken Koblun is a Canadian musician who played alongside Neil Young in The Jades, the Squires, the Stardusters, and briefly Buffalo Springfield.
[1] Koblun began his music career as the bassist for the Squires, a teen band formed by Young in the early 60's at Earl Grey Junior High School.
When Stephen Stills and Richie Furay were seeking to start a rock band in Los Angeles, a few months after Koblun had taken a trip to New York City in 1965, they could not find Neil Young, but did succeed in locating Koblun, whom they convinced to come to California to join the new Buffalo Springfield.
During that time he appeared in one of the few film clips of the band, doing lip synchronization to "Sit Down, I Think I Love You" on the television show Where The Action Is.
He has worked with various musicians such as, Richie Furay, Stephen Stills, Dewey Martin, Donna Warner, David Wiffen, Trevor Veitch, Brent Titcomb, and Richard Patterson.
