  • Bio

    .. Kelly Keagy started out his career as a drummer, but over the years he has gained experience in many aspects of the music business. This experience includes having hits as a songwriter both singularly as well with others. .. The day after Kelly graduated High School, he packed his bags and left home to pursue being a full time drummer. After years of playing the club circuit, he became the drummer for the San Francisco band Rubicon. Along with fellow members Brad Gillis and Jack Blades, he formed the band Night Ranger in the early 80s. .. After cutting their teeth on local gigs in San Francisco, promoter Bill Graham booked Night Ranger as the opening act for such bands as Judas Priest, Santana, and the Doobie Brothers. They became one of the most popular mainstream hard rock bands of the mid 1980s. Night Rangers first album Dawn Patrol (1982), reached number 38 on the U.S. charts, yet it was 1983s Midnight Madness that established the band as a commercial force. Featuring the hits (You Can Still) Rock in America and Sister Christian, the record peaked at number 15 and sold over 1 million copies. 1985s 7 Wishes was even more successful, reaching number 10 on the charts. The band reformed in the mid-90s and have since released 4 more albums. .. In 2001, Kelly took a turn down the solo album trail. Time Passes sees Kelly handling drums and vocals. Kelly, however, is no ordinary drummer. He's a lead vocalist who has been singing lead since that first Night Ranger record. Sonically, the album speaks volumes but the lyrics speak louder. There is something for everyone: from hard rocking tunes to AOR tinged ballads. .. To date, Kelly and his Night Ranger bandmates have just finished a new studio album and a live album recorded in Japan. And Kelly has just released his second solo work, I'm Alive. .. Re-use is permitted under the GFDL. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..  ..

    Alvin Lee was one of my teenage heroes. I saw him with Ten Years After in 69. It was maybe 6 months after Woodstock. Pure Magic! RIP.
