Ke~To are Geoff Grant & Steve Cross, two old school friends from Ilford, Essex, England.
The band name comes from KElvdeon and TOnbridge where they live.
Their story begins in 1970 when both were classmates at Mayfield Secondary School for boys in Ilford. Although not playing music together at that time, Geoff, who sang, played rhythm & bass guitar, formed a teenage band after leaving school, & wrote some songs for them to play. Steve played drums and the clarinet.
Geoff kept an acoustic guitar & played in concerts at his local church where he and his wife Carolin had become choristers, sometimes writing and performing original material. Steve used his creativity by writing music for local amateur dramatics society plays.
In 2016, a friend from school who had played in Geoff's teenage band for a while, suggested getting together to play a few songs. This was a success & gave all three of them a taste for playing music together, which they did.
However, both Geoff and Steve had developed creatively whilst playing together & they began to write new music of their own. Some songs are written jointly some solely by Geoff and some solely by Steve.
Steve composes his songs on a keyboard, into a computer via Cubase software to supplement his drums & Geoff uses guitars, bass & voice to compose, also into a computer using Cubase software. He uses a midi keyboard to create tracks for other instruments.
Geoff’s wife Carolin & Steve’s wife Anne are the female voices.
