'MODERN EROTICA ROCK' KELI RAVEN
Over 30 plus years of producing, writing, and performing, Artist Keli Raven has come full circle with his 8th CD 'Shades Of Keli Raven' A five-song EP that features 4 original cuts written in the early 90s. With a family deeply rooted in the entertainment industry, you can find yourself emerging early mornings from the studio You've been laying tracks for CDs by artists, Kiss, Tom Jones, and Vinnie Vincent among others. For Keli there’s no escaping it. He is deep to the core, singing, playing guitar, bass, percussion, and producing..... Influences range across a wide spectrum of Rock, Pop, Contemporary, and Country music. Born in Manhattan, Keli first hit Los Angeles as a preteen. As he had done in NYC, he garnered auditions and roles in film, commercials, and television. “As a kid, I was unsure of what I wanted to do, act, or play music. All I knew was that no matter what, it would involve performing on stage. At the age of twelve one of the first bands he ever saw was Kiss, and He Quotes: 'I just flipped just flipped'. When time allowed, I made it out to the nightclubs and concert halls. I knew this was the career I wanted”. At 18 he cut his teeth alongside such artists as Guns N Roses, Poison, and L.A. Guns. Being a multiple instrumentalist didn’t hurt either. Numerous city performances, featured guitarist with legendary country artist ‘David Allen Coe’ in Hawaii, sharing the stage with heavy metal icon ‘Lemmy Kilmister’ and ‘Motorhead’, and touring some Asian countries, all have culminated to enable him to develop a unique sound in his recordings and live performances. Under the guidance of award-winning songwriter-producer Howard Rice, Keli co-produced his first CD. He discovered that being on the producing end was equally as rewarding and just as much fun. Keli continues to push the envelope with his cutting-edge Power Trio performances and producing artists of various genres.
