Songwriter and composer

Keyler has a special liking for words. She has worked a lot with words and lyrics, and being able to combine this with her own musical compositions gives her immense pleasure. A very intense and painstaking work, she finds it is a great gift and strength to be able to do just this.

Her music genre is blues and folk rock but also Pop and Jazz, and the music is pervaded by her own emotions. The Keyler music is both temperamental, energetic and sentimental. She is uniquely interested in her audience and you will experience her as the artist together with whom you passionately immerse in the music.


Beathe Keyler wrote/composed about 30-40 songs from 1993 up till 2006, most of them with English lyrics and released some of them in 2006. She composed some of them together with the guitarist Frank Bjørø, drummer Atle N. Nilsen and bass player Roger Langvik, a collaboration (of the Years 2000-2002) which gave her an extra boost on the musical path. Roger Langvik also recorded her debute album in his studio in Gothenburg (Sweden) in 2006 and did a great work both as a technician, co-musician, mixing and finding the right musicians to join her recordings of the Come on home album.

Beathe Kuchler started to perform as B. Keyler in 2006, and founded her own band in 2007:
B. Keyler Band.
She writes her own music & within many different genres. Blues, Rock, Jazz, Pop, World and Soul.
The Band members takes part of the Keyler music making production from early on and makes it complete together with Beathe. Normally B. Keyler perform NEW SONGS LIVE to the audience with her BAND long time before the recording steps begins.
Why?
To try them out on you, of course, but also to get the new songs tighter and more personal!
