"Keith is a gifted singer/songwriter who presents his thoughtful offerings with an easy, winsome charm" --Steve Bell Juno Award Winning Singer/Songwriter
"He is a musician whose sincere faith in Jesus shines through everything he does.
-- Ken Dryden, Regional Director for Alpha Ministries Canada."
In 1994 Keith made a decision that would radically alter the direction of his life.
“I never grew up in the Church. When I was sixteen, I made a decision to follow Christ, and I’ve never looked back. Everything just came alive! But, there was so much to take in. So much new information, and so many questions to wrestle with. It was after I became a Christ follower that I started writing. I guess it was my way of trying to make sense of it all.”
While attending Canadian Bible College, Keith came into his own as a songwriter. He soon gained a following while playing at conferences and coffee shops during his college years.
Shortly after graduation Keith spent a year living in Germany, before coming home to a life of full time ministry.
As a gifted songwriter and communicator, Keith’s passion is to artfully combine deep biblical truth with moving tapestries of music.
This summer Keith recorded his first full-production album in Surrey BC, where he worked with some of the best musicians in Vancouver, and with three great producers; Jonathan Anderson, Roy Salmond & Carolyn Arends.
“Broomtree” is a deeply personal album that carries the listener from spiritual disorientation to a renewed sense of God’s goodness and faithfulness.
Recently ordained by the Christian & Missionary Alliance in Canada, Keith serves as a Youth & Worship Pastor in Swift Current, SK, where he lives with his wife and two children.
“Keith not only knows how to create, craft, and deliver a song, but he takes the art one very important step further. His songs actually have something to say.”
-- Dr. Eugene Rivard, Professor of Music, Crown College, Minnesota

If you don’t know what Fondue is, let me explain.
Each guest spears a cube of beef with a fondue fork and holds it in a small hot oil pot until beef is cooked to the desired doneness. Then you dip the beef in your choice of tasty sauces and enjoy.
