Keith Goggin – Guitar and Vocals
Keith started playing guitar at the age of five and played his first paying gig at twelve. He was a
voice major in college and has played in numerous bands all over the country. He has opened a
tour for the Charlie Daniels Band, shared the stage with Jerry Lee Lewis, the Boxtops, and
others. He played on the college circuit for years with the South Star Band, and in the New
Orleans band Delacroix for eight years. For the last twenty years he has played in the Houston,
Texas bands The Levee Busters and Whiskey Brisket as well as doing solo acoustic work. Keith
has been working both on tours and in the studio on and off with California-based songwriter
Christie McCarthy for nearly 30 years. Keith has also worked as a guitarist in the studio with
many artists.
Keith’s main influences are all over the musical map, from Eric Clapton to Doc Watson to
Michael Hedges to James McMurtry to Mark Knopfler and most points in between. Keith’s
shows typically cover quite a few genres, and usually contain a surprise or two. As one listener
put it, “Keith is well known in both Houston, TX and Southwest Virginia as one of the slickest
pickers around and a pretty gifted song-writer as well.” No matter whether it’s a solo show or a
band gig, we’re gonna have us a time!
