Harmony Keeney combines her silky voice with an elegant, sensitive style befitting the timeless music she sings. Artists such as Judy Garland, Billie Holiday, Janis Siegel, and Shirley Horn, inspired her love of the American Songbook and traditional jazz standards.
Harmony received her bachelor's degree in music from Appalachian State University in Boone, North Carolina, where she performed both at University functions and area jazz venues. Her debut CD, entitled This Time It's Love, features Harmony with two different jazz trios, performing fourteen songs from the standard repertoire.
After a few years honing her craft as a professional singer in North Carolina, Harmony moved to New York in 2006. As a newcomer to the city’s music scene, she quickly became a favorite performer at the Metropolitan Room and the Friars Club.
Harmony is busier than ever. On November 8th, she will be a featured performer at Jazz at Lincoln Center for the 2007 Cabaret Convention presented by The Mabel Mercer Foundation. And, on November 16th, she will open in the Off-Broadway show, "Our Sinatra," at The Songbook Theater.

Die-hard and devoted Sinatra fans that we are, my family and I had the luck of hearing Keeney for the first time during her stunning off-Broadway performance in Dec 07 as the lead female vocal in "Our Sinatra." It is safe to say that even Sinatra, in all his greatness, failed to convey the lyrics of "A Fool to Love You" with the same soulfulness and heart as did Keeney during her live set. Within moments of returning home from the show, I bought her CD on cdBaby. The CD, by its very nature, lends a bit of a canned quality to the selections. The result fails to do Keeney's stunning, captivating voice justice, but the recording is still a pleasure to listen to throughout our home.
