A self-described wanderer, indie folk singer-songwriter Billy Keane has cultivated more than his share of real-life experience. Born in Australia and raised in Connecticut, he began singing in church and was drawn to any and all instruments he could get his hands on. Keane has been called one of the most exciting new acts in the indie-folk genre. Once out of high school, Keane traveled widely, spending time in locations as varied as Brooklyn, Africa and Seattle, even working as a commercial deep sea diver in Louisiana. Years spent globetrotting honed his experiential observations,which have deeply infused his music. Keane is constantly sifting through the details, and searching for better understanding – of himself, of life’s meaning, and of the world at large
