I've been spending a fair amount of time working on new techniques and articulations on the Stick and I'll be uploading videos to show my ideas. Thanks to all of you for watching and supporting the Stick.

And you aren't even wearing it! Looks like it is on a stand. Excellent, either way!

Re: Kevin Keith - New Year, New Video
Hello all,
Thanks so much for watching and for the great feedback.
I had to take some time away from creating videos because I needed to create (and then practice) some new techniques that would give me the ability to play the things I hear in my head. i also needed to accumulate more gigging hours. Practicing is a fundamental thing but at some point I needed to play these ideas in front of audiences because that pressure really transforms your skill set.
My goal has been to evolve my sound into something more aggressive yet clean. This video is my first effort in that direction and I'm looking forward to posting more. Thanks again for watching!
Kevin

Sempil. If you look up the "Bob's Zoom" video where Keith was a guest you can get a good look at his set up.
Davidws, Tks much! In about another month i will be able to view streaming without metered internet! 4/10/21 looks about right, but at over an hour, that is my whole month

Jeez, Kevin. I think "agressive yet clean" pretty much characterizes everything I've heard from you. I love your style.

Re: Kevin Keith - New Year, New Video
Those bass runs in the left hand at 1:07 and at the end. It looks like you don't even have to try. Such great production, it all sounds so good Kevin. Your use of the instrument is truly unique - you've unlocked where it sits in your creative process and the results are magical.
Thanks again everyone, I really appreciate the support!
As Stick players you know how it is - you're always experimenting and trying to hone your skills in the continued quest of perfection.. or al least improvement (Lol). I am grateful that for the first time in my life I'm in a position where I can spend a lot of time playing Stick. Looking forward to making more music and videos!
