Davey G. and the Keyboard

About Me

Davey G and the Keyboard formed 24 years after his birth and has been playing in and around the Baltimore area for the last five years, as well as a few shows in New York and New England. His four releases are Generica (2000), Have you Experienced the Experience (2002), Prepare to Be Keyboarded (2005) and most recently, the CD he hopes will carry him to his lasting fame, Chairman of the Keyboard (2007). The "music" is a fusion of rock, polka, new wave, and really just whatever keyboard pre-set is appropriate for the song. Check out the Davey G and the Keyboard website and enjoy the music I have on myspace!ps--If you're here to send me some bullshit porn-type thing kindly go bother someone else.
