ABOUT
Joe Keeley is a 27 year old singer/songwriter from Suffolk. After being raised on classic country music and heavily influenced by his musician father, Joe left school at 17 to pursue a career in music and has been making a living playing country music around the UK ever since.
As Joe was growing up, he often joined his father on tours while he was playing in 90's country rock and roll band Blackjack. Life on the road and being surrounded by this type of music made him fall in love with artists like Steve Earle, Waylon Jennings and Johnny Cash, all considered 'outlaws' of country music. As much to the dismay of his mother, Joe found artists like these to be of a huge inspiration to himself and his music.
THE JOE KEELEY BAND
After making his name as a solo artist, Joe teamed up with fellow Suffolk musicians to form Alt-Country Rock n Roll outfit, The Joe Keeley Band. With Alex Raymond (drums), Doug Bell (Bass) and Jack Lawson (guitar) to create a sound that draws from country and rock influences.
The release of their debut album, Blackwood, marked a significant milestone for the band. This collection features heartfelt tracks that explore themes of love, longing, and resilience, as well as hard-hitting, guitar driven rock tracks, showcasing Joe’s songwriting prowess and the band’s tight musical arrangement. Each song tells a story, inviting listeners to connect on a deeper level.
Known for their electrifying live shows, The Joe Keeley Band delivers an experience that leaves audiences wanting more. With infectious energy and a genuine connection to their fans, the band creates an atmosphere of celebration and camaraderie. From intimate venues to larger festivals, every performance is a unique blend of music, emotion, and fun.
