Jim Keller is an American musician, producer, manager, publisher and composer whose work in the music business spans more than 40 years. Born on the East Coast, he relocated to California in the 1970s and was the co-founder, lead guitarist and primary songwriter for the American rock band Tommy Tutone (1978-1994), based in San Francisco. Keller was co-writer of that band's most famous single, '867-5309/Jenny'. Since 1992, Keller has worked with Philip Glass, first running Glass's publishing company and eventually managing his career as director of Dunvagen Music. In 1999, Keller founded St. Rose Music as a publishing and management company for friends and associates. Their roster has grown to include Nico Muhly, Rachel Portman, Angélica Negrón, the music theater works of Tom Waits, Jeff Beal, Paul Leonard-Morgan, Ravi Shankar and Anoushka Shankar. Keller stopped performing and recording in 1994, but after a ten-year hiatus, he began writing songs and performing again in 2005, now under his own name, fronting his own Jim Keller Band. Sunshine in My Pocket (2009) was the his first solo album under his own name, the first of seven (as of January 2026). <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Jim+Keller">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
