We had the good fortune of connecting with Savannah Keyes and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Savannah, why did you pursue a creative career?
Since I can remember, I have always wanted to sing, write music, and perform those songs. It’s always been something that felt natural and exciting for me to do. I was constantly writing songs in my bedroom or looking for a stage to perform on. I never considered pursuing another career.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I am really excited to open for my first big show for Jimmie Allen at the end of this month. Getting to have first big show be in my hometown feels so special and full circle.

When people come to my shows or listen to my music I want them to feel heard. I want them to know that we have experienced the same things, somehow I just found a way to put them to music.

One of the best pieces of advice I ever learned was “it’s not a race, it’s a marathon”. This journey doesn’t happen overnight.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I have been so lucky to have so many champions in my life while pursuing this career. My family, my songwriting mentor, my friends, my manager have never once questioned my path or my vision.
