DAVE KELLER "SOUL CHANGES"

Dave Keller is one of the finest soul and blues men of his generation.  He is a 2014 Blues Music Award Nominee for Best Soul/Blues Album, for his CD Soul Changes.  He is the 2012 winner of the Best Self-Produced CD award at the Blues Foundation's International Blues Challenge (IBC) in Memphis, TN.   About.com recently said, "Dave Keller is gonna be huge!", and it's starting to seem that way. In 2009, after being discovered by legendary guitarist Ronnie Earl, Keller appeared as a singer and co-writer on Earl's.BMA-nominated CD, Living In the Light.  Next, blues and soul fans got to hear Keller with his own band on his all-original critically-acclaimed release Play for Love (Sept. 2009).  In Oct. 2011, Keller released his latest gem: Where I'm Coming From.  In addition to winning the IBC award, the CD reached #2 on B.B. King's Bluesville, Sirius/XM radio, for May 2012. Where I'm Coming From is an album of deep soul songs recorded with The Revelations, one of the hottest soul bands on the scene today.  Produced by Bob Perry (Wu-Tang Clan, 50 Cent, Brian McNight, Foxy Brown), it even includes a duet with acclaimed soul singer Tre' Williiams. With all this forward momentum, Keller has hit the road even harder, with shows in NYC (Southpaw, Hill Country BBQ), Philly (World Cafe), Boston (Johnny D's, Harper's Ferry, Beehive, Berklee's Cafe 939), RI (Chan's), CT (Bridge St. Live, Black-Eyed Sally's), all over VT and NH, and festival work from ME to PA, including the biggest blues fest in New England (North Atlantic Blues Festival).  In the past year, Keller has performed with Ronnie Earl, Otis Clay, The Revelations featuring Tre' Williams, Darrell Nulisch, Dwight Ritcher (of Dwight and Nicole), Jesse Dee, and Anthony Gomes.  He recently opened for soul legend Swamp Dogg, and has toured the northeast backing Johnny Rawls, BMA winner of best soul album of 2010.
