Dave Keller, hailed as a “magnificent soul singer” by Elmore Magazine, is set to take the stage at Arts Bonita Performing Arts Center on Nov. 10, at 7:30 p.m. This performance promises to be an electrifying experience, showcasing Keller’s soulful vocals and stellar guitar skills.
Over the past decade, Keller has carved a niche for himself, earning accolades such as a “stellar” guitarist (“http://AXS.com” rel=”noopener” target=”_blank”>AXS.com) and a “songwriting genius” (Living Blues). His prowess has been recognized with three Blues Music Award nominations for Best Soul Blues Album. Audiences across the U.S. and Europe have been captivated by Keller’s livewire shows, establishing a loyal legion of fans.
A three-time Blues Music Award nominee and winner of the International Blues Challenge’s Best Self-Produced Album Award, Keller’s love for Memphis Soul is evident, and his journey includes collaborations with luminaries like Mighty Sam McClain, Ronnie Earl, and Robert Ward. Noteworthy experiences include backing up Fontella Bass, recording with Al Green’s original Hi Rhythm Section, and studio sessions with Bobby “Blue” Bland.
Dave Keller’s story unfolds over three decades, beginning in the icy mountains of Vermont. Self-taught and armed with an old Yamaha acoustic guitar, Keller’s musical evolution led him to the realm of deep Blues. His switch to electric, formation of a funky trio, and extensive gigging throughout New England quickly garnered him a dedicated fan base.
