Real name: John Keek

Effective period / Period of releases: 2017

John Keek, now 20, began playing the Sax at age 14, hailing from a Las Vegas family full of talented musicians, he gravitated early on toward Jazz but has since drawn on his wide-ranging inspirations - artists like Donny Hathaway, Louis Cole, Ambrose Akinmusire, and James Fauntleroy - to craft a sound that encompasses elements of pop, RnB and Hip-Hop.

His two early releases - "By Your Side” featuring the voice of Georgia Anne Muldrow and "Come Give It Up” - set out his stall as a musician. With Pigeons & Planes extolling his "penchant for unusual melodies and skillful, jazz-leaning instrumentation”, he also caught the ear of UK musician King Krule, eventually joining him, sax in tow, on his US West Coast tour, including opening a recent secret show in LA.
