Keith Harrison is a nationally recognized live-performer, music director, composer, orchestrator and songwriter. His work in Chicago Theatre made him a two-time Joseph Jefferson Award-Winner (The Boys From Syracuse and The Hunchback of Notre Dame) and he was nominated five other times.

As a pianist and orchestrator, he worked with Lauren Kennedy on her CD release concert (Here and Now); Dennis DeYoung (Styx) on Hunchback; and with Tony® Award-Winners Heather Headley and Levi Kreis.

As a stage performer, he’s been seen at Chicago’s famed Goodman Theatre and Apollo Theater. In 2010, he completed a stint with the Chicago company of the Tony®-nominated Broadway musical Million Dollar Quartet, playing rock n’ roller Jerry Lee Lewis.

Keith began composing music as a child growing up in New Jersey. His compositions have been heard on television and radio alongside major brands, including McDonald's and Allstate. He developed the electronic music for the new and controversial musical White Noise, produced by Whoopi Goldberg, and produced the score for the EMMY-nominated anti-bullying PSA Campaign "STARS Nashville".

Keith is a prolific singer-songwriter whose crossover album, Side A, can be found on iTunes, along with his politico-satire single Bla-Go, which won the Chicago RedEye's Blagojevich songwriting contest in 2009. He also traveled to the Gulf of Mexico to shoot a music video for his original song “Tomorrow May Not Come” about the tragic impact of the BP Oil spill.

An accomplished sound engineer, he produces all of his own recordings in his home studio. He also records for various labels, including CMH, which released his cover of Bruno Mars’ “Just The Way You Are” in 2010.

His singular vocal and musical style is reminiscent of artists as varied as Gavin DeGraw, Maroon 5, and John Legend. With a soulful sound and pop sensibility, Keith has toured venues like The House of Blues, The Mint and the Viper Room. His newest EP, Play The Game, was released in May 2011. He is a graduate of Northwestern University, and lives with his wife, Laura, in Los Angeles, California.
