This pivotal realization propelled them into the vibrant and dynamic jazz community of Boston, Massachusetts.Following Lenny McLean's relocation to Maryland, ON KEE seamlessly transitioned their musical activities to the vibrant DC/Maryland region. They actively participated in numerous events, including a Lupus Foundation fundraiser held in Glen Burnie, Maryland, in April 2008, demonstrating their continued commitment to supporting charitable causes.ON KEE's performances have graced a wide array of venues throughout the Baltimore/Washington metropolitan area, reflecting their broad appeal and versatility.

Their presence has also been felt in the nation's capital at the Brencore Music Festival, Bowie Center for the Performing Arts. Within Baltimore City, they have entertained patrons of the culturally significant Reginald F. Lewis Art Museum as well as the lively Baltimore Inner Harbor. Further engagements include performances at the popular Lake Arbor Jazz Festival in Mitchellville, Maryland, and the intimate Takoma Station in Washington, D.C.
