Get ready Richmond moms and kids – Keller Williams is coming to town!
If you haven’t heard Keller’s fantastic “Kids” CD, then you are in for a treat. His music is simple, fun, motivating, and filled with humorous lyrics. He manages to also include a few cute kids singing along with him, which makes your kids want to join in too.
Originally from Virginia, Keller has done solo albums, live albums, one with The String Cheese Incident, another with Bob Weir, Michael Franti, Bela Fleck and a bunch of other personal heroes, a bluegrass covers album with Keller & The Keels, a children’s album, a remix album, and more. His debut into the world of children’s music is a huge sensation.
Keller has created a musical extravaganza for kids and the recent CD had my granddaughter laughing and singing in the back seat of my car. With songs like, “Car Seat”, “Taking a Bath”, “Mama Tooted”, and “The Fastest Song in the World”, kids can’t help but get excited.
“This CD blends Williams’ love of bluegrass and rock to create a unique sound that will resonate with listeners of all ages,” according to Rockabye Baby Music. With Kids, Keller creates a style of family music that’s all his own, and reaches his young audience in a way that matters. While other performers play for kids, Keller plays with them. The shows are a blast for kids – with balloons and confetti, interactive drum circles and more – and parents love it too.
His excitement and joy of singing are infectious for adults too. The Washington Post puts it best:
“Kids’ music often falls into two categories: too annoying for parents or too condescending for kids. Thankfully, the new album from Virginia singer-songwriter Keller Williams is neither. Kids is good, simple, rootsy music with hymorous lyrics and a smattering of cute kids singing along.”

Keller takes many of the everyday things we tell our kids and turns them into songs. How many times have you said, “Sit in your carseat”? Keller has made a cute song about “sittin’ in my carseat” that kids love — especially my granddaughter!
