Kevin Keller (born April 27, 1967)[1] is an American composer and recording artist known primarily for "ambient chamber music",[2] a style that combines live instruments with electronic effects.
[3] Starting out as a guitarist in his teen years, Keller turned to the piano while attending Jesuit High School,[4] inspired by the music of Claude Debussy, Brian Eno, and Harold Budd.
Keller's first solo recording "The Mask of Memory" (1994) came to the attention of radio producer Stephen Hill, who included several tracks on a Hearts of Space program titled "Digital Planet"[7] in 1995.
This was followed by a Living Room Concert and feature on Echoes, whose host John Diliberto named Keller's second CD "Intermezzo" as one of the Top 25 records of 1996.
[10] Keller currently resides in New York City,[11] where he composes music for choreographers such as Dwight Rhoden,[12] Elisa Monte,[13] Amy Marshall,[14] and Ray Sullivan.
