Back in the early 80s, Jim Keller wrote the still ubiquitous 867-5309/Jenny and was part of the band that recorded it, Tommy Tutone. That band broke up shortly after that and Jim kept working as musician. After a few years, he put his guitar away and ended up working for the music company of composer Philip Glass, licensing Glass’s music. About five years ago, Jim dug his guitar out of the back of the closet and started writing and performing again. The Jim Keller Band is made up of some of New York City’s musical mainstays (including Chris Masterson). One thing for sure, these guys know how to rock.
