Biography
Spokane, Washington USA based singer, songwriter and music executive.
In the early sixties Keith Colley was headed toward a Gene Pitney-esque sort of situation - crashing the gates as a teen idol while working behind the scenes as a songwriter and publisher. For Colley, though, the behind-the-scenes stuff won out and he ended up with only one charting single, “Enamorado,” which peaked at #66 in ‘63 and #19 in Canada.
Colley turned increasingly to the business side of the music scene as the 1960s waned, becoming an A&R man for Four Star, and eventually became a part of the administrative side of the publishing company.
Recorded one album 1974 as Sun Child. "I'm Changing Things" MCA-448.
Married to songwriter Linda Colley.
