Band Members: New band name! Don't we have enough WMD'S in the world already? From here forward, Keller's dream band will be called what it is: Keller Williams with Moseley, Droll and Sipe.Keller WilliamsKeith Moseley (bass)Gibb Droll (guitar)Jeff Sipe (drums)Keller Williams has been called guitars mad-scientist, a one-man-band for the new millennium and dozens of other clever sobriquets dreamed up by fans and music journalists trying to get a handle on his uplifting and ever-shifting style of music. Williams is considered by some but not by himself, to be a master of the acoustic guitar, known for his ability to solo over layers of spontaneously created loops. He is a generous performer who plays down to earth acoustic music that defies any effort to find a convenient pigeonhole Keller Williams’ new album DREAM, which features a DREAM team of guest musicians, has inspired the usually one-man-band to hit the road with, you guessed it, a DREAM live band.Keith Moseley (bass player and singer/songwriter)As a member of the hugely successful independent band The String Cheese Incident for over 14 years, Keith Moseley has a seemingly endless list of musical experience. He has played many of the world’s most renowned venues and music festivals, such as Fuji Rock, Newport, Bonnaroo, and the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, to name just a few. He has shared the stage with a diverse roster of fellow musicians, including Bruce Hornsby, The Flaming Lips, Perry Ferrell, Steve Winwood, Jack Johnson, Angelique Kidjo and many, many others. He has recorded with famed producers Malcolm Burns (Bob Dylan, Chris Whitely, Emmylou Harris, Daniel Lanois) and Steve Berlin (Los Lobos, Tragically Hip). Currently, Keith Moseley is on tour with Keller Williams and The WMD’S, featuring Williams, Moseley, Gibb Droll/guitar and Jeff Sipe/drums. Moseley plays Lakland bass, Modulus bass, Elixir strings, Ampeg amplifiers.Jeff Sipe has performed with numerous ensembles that have encompassed all musical genres. He seems to have a naturally organic control over his drum kit. His career blossomed when he founded the band Aquarium Rescue Unit with Col. Bruce Hampton and Jimmy Herring in the early nineties. The music was extremely dynamic fusion which made good use of the players' skills. Jeff has also played and toured with Leftover Salmon, Phil Lesh, Trey Anastasio, Susan Tedeschi and many other incredible bands and musicians.Quiet and softspoken, the introverted Gibb Droll is transformed into someone quite different once you put a guitar into his hands. The pure unscripted performances that have shaped his career have given him mainstream success without compromising his trademark sound and independent status. Attend one of his concerts, and it is clear to see why those who have had an opportunity yo be touched by him are never again the same. Just as Droll was impressed upon as a young boy by Stevie Ray Vaughn and Jimi Hendrix, so too do audiences bask in his talent.
