Bio:


Award-winning actress, acclaimed recording artist, and compelling singer-songwriter, Kaylee Keller sensed a divine calling towards performing even before starting kindergarten.


Her journey gained significant momentum around age fifteen when a showcase opened doors to industry professionals. What followed was a rapid ascent: graduating high school early, signing an artist development deal, releasing her first song to radio, and opening for national artists such as Josh Wilson, Jerrod Niemann, Craig Campbell, and Joe Diffy. She simultaneously took her music and inspiring messages to festivals, schools, and churches across the US – all before she could legally drive everywhere solo!


Currently, Kaylee is making significant strides in the acting world, starring in new family-friendly and faith-based films that have earned her several awards and nominations. When she's not performing or filming, she channels her passion into leading worship, teaching music lessons, and empowering others through digital marketing. Kaylee isn't just performing; she's living out a profound calling, inspiring others to find and embrace their own, one song and one role at a time.
