Keeva's sound is an eclectic and unique blend of World Music and Brazilian Pop.

This project was conceived three years ago by band leaders Rogerio Jardim and Bill Macpherson. Together they composed, produced and recorded Keeva´s debut cd "SAFE HARBOR"

Rogerio who sings and plays drums and percussion is from Brazil. He also spent many years in Germany so he brings modern pop, R&B and European

stylings to his grooves and Portuguese lyrics.

Bill was raised in Zaire, Africa and brings a world of travelling to his guitar playing. He mixes numerous African guitar styles with rock, jazz and blues

and is a graduateof the Berklee College Of Music.

Rounding out the trio line up is bassist extraordinaire Melvin Davis.

Melvin is one of L.A.'s top call session and touring musicians. He adds a solid bottom end and creative colorings

not usually heard from the bass department.

Their album was engineered, mixed and mastered by Rogerio at his own Midraj studios. Additionally, Alphonso Johnson on bass and

Mark Stephens on Fender Rhodes appear on the CD. Currently Keeva is performing actively up and down California with pending tours

to Brasil, Japan and Europe in the works. At any given show you will experience irresistible dance grooves, hauntingly beautiful vocal melodies,

sensitive to savage guitar work and majestic sub tonalities from the bass.

To experience Keeva "live" or through their debut recording is a must for the musically adventurous soul.
