Earlier this year, Keller Williams released his 20th official album, Vape. The release hits during Keller's 20th year of making music. On Vape, Keller offers up 10 original tracks - some road tested and some brand new. With a hugely successful career spanning two decades under his belt, the music on Vape somehow finds Keller more confident delivering his signature, often off-the-wall storytelling. Backed by a variety of fellow musicians including Samson Grisman/bass, John Kadlecik/guitar, Ronnie McCoury/mandolin, Rob McCoury/banjo, Alan Bartram/bass, Jason Carter/fiddle and others - Keller's playing has never been more precise and versatile.
