About

Keith Dover is a singer/songwriter and solo performer currently playing venues in and around Nashville. With 26 years experience playing in bands, and 15 years as a solo act, Keith puts on a dynamic performance of popular rock, country, blues, pop and folk songs. Prior to moving to the Nashville area just several months ago, Keith has impressed crowds in New York, Minneapolis, and Southern Maine with his powerful vocals, impressive guitar work, and engaging stage presence. As a songwriter, Keith’s solo work favors darker, more droning themes found in older styles of blues, folk and rock music. He likes riff-oriented guitar parts that are often intricate or pulsing, and accentuate the dynamics of the songs. Portraits of the modern experience, his original songs explore the lives of the marginalized, the haunted, and the resilient.
