A reviewer once wrote that the typical Keith Reichley song is “extremely well-crafted.” She also wrote “such are Reichley’s gifts that he’d be better labeled a ‘songwriter/singer’.”

OK. So in a perfect world he’d have the voice of an angel, really have a handle on the guitar, the mandolin, the piano and harmonica. He would have had a real career over the last twenty or so years. As such, his career is based on the premise that if you do original songs and obscure covers, no one knows when you screw up.

A native and current resident of the vibrant town of Cleveland, Keith has been performing his distinctive originals and an uncommon collection of covers on guitar, piano, mandolin and harmonica for over two decades, appearing on concert stages, in coffeehouses and bars throughout the Midwest. In addition to numerous radio and television appearances, he has shared the stage with Jonathan Edwards, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, and Kim Richey.

Bio
Start with the early 70’s. Upon returning to Athens at spring break while a sophomore at Ohio University Keith had a spare $20 in his pocket, intent on buying his first musical instrument. He walked into Blue Eagle Music looking for a ukelele, but found in his meager price range only an eight-stringed contraption. He said “I’ll take it. What is it?” It was a mandolin.

A few years later Keith started playing for audiences at coffeehouses and student hangouts in Athens with Amy Wooley, a fine singer/songwriter and eventual MCA recording artist.
