King of the Sofa
Add to My Profile | More Videos
Welcome.
Previously a flying trapeze artist, Keith Holden ran away from the circus to join in matrimony and raise a family on peaches in Ibiza.
One night, free from pumping dance tunes, and his family had gone to bed, he found himself alone on the sofa, and realized that this was his world.
And so, from then on, he became, 'King of the Sofa.'
He was free to dream of a music where Rock, country, jazz, punk, gospel and classical musicians could meld in a kaleidoscope of sounds.
"Why I could write music for myself, everyone else, the dead and those not yet born!"
He exclaimed to himself.
And he did.
"One of the few English performers who doesn't just go through the motions,"
Henry Rollins
"One of only a handful of real clowns in the world,"
Andrew Watson, Director of Cirque du Soleil
"Keith's not just offering his music, he's a phenomenon."
Mike Manumission
"One of the greatest talents around."
Keith's mum.
