Kat n Keys Trio: The Story

How They Got Here

This band was born out of a two individuals with great ambition and a positive outlook on their musical journey. Ever since they came together in 2002, they’ve found great joy and satisfaction in making music and sharing it with fans and people all over the Metro D.C. area. Finding success in the music industry is anything but easy, but they’ve managed to stay strong while overcoming personal and professional challenges. Being through so much together has only brought them closer, and their hope is to stay true to their main objective which is to make music that people love and that they can be proud of.

​

The first incarnation of Kat n Keys was as a Duo. Founded by Dave Gaetani (keyboards) and Karen "Kat" Cooper (vocals), the team first embarked on their musical voyage of discovery together as a cohesive Rock Duo in 2012. But their origin goes back earlier to when Dave and Kat were members of the Classic Rock band "Swiftkick". Kat and Dave shared very similar interest in music and grew up listening to a variety of music genres that played an influential role in shaping their paths as musicians and ultimately led them together.

​

In 2020, the duo decided to expand and discovered vocalist George Diaz. Like Kat and Dave, George also shared similar interest in music. The talent and chemistry was there from the first audition and The Kat n Keys Trio was born. 

​

The Kat n Keys Trio have collectively found their signature sound and offer something different and unique to their fans by covering popular artists as authentically as possible or putting their own spin on things that they are proud to call their own. For more information please get in touch.
