Keller Williams - 5.23.2009 - Summer Camp - Chillicothe, IL
It is well known that Keller Williams is the master of on-stage "looping." He has taken his looping to another level and is now looping shows! Keller is playing a matinee children/families show on 2/5 in Chicago to celbrate the release of his first children's book Because I Said So. He is also mixing it up on his upcoming winter tour. He has stops scheduled in every music city in the country, and everywhere in between. Although the majority are solo, some stops include sets played with his partners Larry and Jenny Keel, his mates on their latest, all cover release Thief. Yes, once again, Keller does things a little different than the average (folk) rock star. It begs the question...what's next Keller?

One-man-band Keller Williams is on tour this winter. In addition to evening theatre shows in Austin, Chicago, and Philadelphia, Keller has confirmed some special matinee performances/book signings in select markets. That’s right, book signings. Hand-in-hand with the release of Keller Williams’ sixteenth album — and first-ever album for kids and families — appropriately titled Kids, Keller once again breaks new ground with the November 30 release of his very first children’s book, Because I Said So (Fun Read Publishing, $20, for ages 2-8, 33 pages).
KIDS – Keller’s first album release for children and families - has already been warmly embraced by kids’ and music tastemakers:
"[Keller's] big-hearted wit is perfectly suited to the songs on Kids, a record that will entertain children of all ages without talking down to them." - All Music Guide
“Kids sparkles with invention.” - Technorati.com
“This is hands-down my favorite kids album of all time.” - Perfect Porridge
Keller’s children’s book, Because I Said So, is based on Keller’s song by the same name (included on Kids) and is enhanced by the cleverly drawn illustrations of Virginia artist Bill Harris. Because I Said So is humorous, colorful, heartfelt, and wise. Included with the book is a CD containing the song. Because I Said So is available at http://www.kellerwilliamskids.net/.
