biography

Born in Dallas, Tx in 1970, Keith discovered his love for music at the early age of 10. He started playing the drums, until he found his true passion for the saxaphone. He began studying with James Wilson, who would give him a pinch for each mistake, which he atttributes, today for his dedication and hard work. At this time, Keith wa accepted to high school for the visual and performing arts, in Dallas, under the direct leadership of Bart Marantz.

Mr. Anderson's talents and unique flair for playing the saxaphone can be attributed to much and many. Keith started playing locally with a singer by the name of Pat Peterson, who was one of the original Raylettes and now, is one of the singers for John Couger Mellencamp. Later, Keith would be discovered by the legendary Les Mcann. This was a man of major influence and of many accomadations. Since then, Keith has traveled the world as Les's featured soloist, who has performed for thousands and played with many all around the globe. Such artists and mentors include, but are not limited to, Lou Rawls, Kirk Whalum, Kirk Franklin, Roy Aires, Eryka Badu, Roy Hardgrove, Kenny Lattimore, BebE and CeCe Winans, Grover Washington, Cab Calloway and many more.

In 2002 Keith reconnected with old friend Face, who like Keith was a trained Jazz musician but had got a taste of the deep house bug and past that on to Keith. As you can imagine, Keith was particularly moved by the sounds of Maw, Naked Music and many others that incorporated that live jazz, funk feel into their music. Shortly therafter. Keith began to collaborate in the studio with Grab label manager& producer, Jeff Mitchell (aka Jazmin & Face) in creating some serious funk, jazz driven cuts with a serious dose of bootie shaking appeal. The two named themselves "E.O.C" (elements of creation). With already numerous licensing deals at hand at praises from the likes of XLR8R Magazine, you will no doubt hear more about these boys in 2004.
