“These are individuals who are confident enough in themselves not to pander and not to copycat,” Crocker said. “All of them have talent and marketability, but had they gone anywhere else, they probably would have been told to tone down a lot of their eccentricities and some of their weirder nuances." - Spartanburg Herald Journal
The Hillary Keane Project plays an eclectic blend of blues, folk, and pop. Hillary’s melodic voice transfixes audiences through meaningful, mesmerizing lyrics. - TEDxGreenville Kaleidoscope

Bio
Hillary Keane's voice is angelic with an edge...so is her personality...so is her overall musical sound. The themes of her songs are introspective with a desire to grow and move past negative influences, as well as to nurture and encourage listeners who can relate to her experiences. Hillary’s sound and character are both completely genuine and have attracted the likes of great musical ears and musicians to come together to support the solid foundation that was once just Hillary and her guitar. Jubbyfuk first enhanced her sound by being the entire band for her album, Gemini Syndrome (2014). Jubby continues to bring precision, fullness, and even funk to the band as he plays the bass so masterfully it is not uncommon to hear shouts from the crowd about the mind-blowing simplicity he seems to play with.
Through Jubby’s connection with another band, he brought in Jeramie Aiken on lead guitar. Jeramie’s both masterful and humble style on lead fit in like a puzzle piece, and he stuck around as his personality and energy perfectly meshed with Hillary and Jubby as well. Miles Fleming had perfect timing showing up to jam on the drums. When Jubby moved from drums to bass, there was a space left that seemed impossible to fill adequately, but Miles proved to be the perfect fit with 2 weeks to prepare for their first HKP show together. Miles added a rhythm of power and precision and high-energy, positive personality that completes the harmony of the groups’ all around chemistry as both bandmates and friends.
