ABOUT

Versatile, creative, energetic!

Keith Petty currently plays drums in two bands in Berlin: Damn! You Look Good and fragFrank! He has been playing music since the age of six. Over the years he played piano, saxophone, sang choir, and even guitar. It wasn't until studying with the best at the Indiana University School of Music that he developed his love for playing drums.

He has played in indie-rock bands inspired by the White Stripes, Modest Mouse, and Sleater-Kinney. Later he played in an alternative rock bands, playing gigs in Washington, DC, with a style inspired by Fugazi, Soundgarden, Primus, and Built to Spill. Later he supported a singer-songwriter, and played melodic jams reminiscent of Elvis Costello, Coldplay, and the New Pornographers.

His work has been described as intuitive and creative. He can comfortably transition from a variety of styles, including rock, alternative, blues, punk, country, or something completely radical and new.

Keith has all of his own gear (Yamaha Tour Custom kit, Yahama hardware, Zildjian cymbals), and is always looking forward to a new project!
