Keith Kehrer Bio
Keith was raised in Middletown, New Jersey, and began piano and voice
lessons at the age of 4 with Tom Davis, who studied with Leontyne Price's
teacher. Throughout his school years, he studied classical and popular
music, played and sang in variety of bands, orchestras, and choruses,
and joined the army in 1977 as a saxophone player.
While in the Army, between 1977 and 1980, he played saxophone, clarinet,
piano and bass, and wrote and arranged and ran the recording studio for
the 389th Army Band in Fort Monmouth, New Jersey. He studied with Bill
Evans, Morris Nanton, Phil Woods, Don Sebesky and Gerald Sebesky, Walter
Davis Jr., and Richard Davis in nearby New York. After the Army, Keith
played and did studio work in New York City and toured the U.S. in a number
of jazz, rock, salsa, and fusion groups.
Upon moving to Phoenix, Arizona in 1980, Keith played with various pop,
R&B, punk and rock bands. He also wrote, arranged, and did studio
work in the Phoenix area. In 1989, he started a business, Kamakaze Music
and Kamakaze Productions, in which he taught voice and music, and produced
demos, albums, CDs.
Keith is a multi-instrumentalist, classically trained vocalist, composer,
and arranger whose varied background allows him to write music in many
moods and genres. Since moving to the Washington D.C. area in 2001, he
has built a fully equipped project studio, which allows him to record
all music on the premises. He can produce music with speed and appropriateness
to any project he takes on.
