Meet Dave Keller

One of the premier torchbearers of Deep Soul and Roots music

His dynamic, high energy performances have earned him a legion of fans throughout the U.S. and Europe.

Keller knows how to fill dance floors. But just as importantly, Keller connects with his fans in a real way. His good friend, Mississippi Soul/Blues master Johnny Rawls, calls Keller “The Soul Healer”.

Breaking down the barrier between performer and audience. Using music as a healing force. Creating an experience that everyone remembers long after the show is over.

Since 1993, Keller has performed many thousands of shows in New England, from his home base in Montpelier, VT. The past decade has seen his star rise dramatically.

Keller has earned plenty of national accolades and awards. He and his “tighter than tight” band (Blues Music Magazine) have performed in almost every state east of the Mississippi river, and quite a few west of it. His touring schedule regularly includes some of the largest and most respected festivals and venues in the U.S.

With his recent European tour, and glowing articles in the European press (Rolling Stone FRANCE, Music Republic Magazine UK, etc.), Keller continues to expand his fanbase internationally.
