Audio, Video, and Writing

[About Me]

Howdy! My name is Keenan Ketzner, and I'm a multidisciplinary artist based in the PNW. I studied audio engineering at Fairhaven College, where I specialized in recording, mixing, mastering, and production. Over the years I have collaborated with a wide range of musicians and filmmakers, bringing my drive and knowledge to every project. From capturing performances, to production, to re-recording engineer, to live audio, sound design, guitar, vocals, keys, and more- I can handle many tasks. I have a particular passion for restoring damaged or unconventional recordings, as well as capturing the energy of live performances in challenging environments.

Beyond audio work, I also have a background in visual art, with training in drawing and photo manipulation. My design portfolio includes poster work for both local and touring artists, as well as experimental visual projects that explore form, texture, and mood. I’ve also been a writer on occasion, contributing interviews, show reviews, and editorial pieces on various topics of art to What’s Up Magzine and Shut Up and Listen, as well as others. I could go on for a while about the other projects I’ve done along with radio hosting, podcast work, YouTube, and more, but I’ll keep it short and say I’m always exploring new sides of my creativity, so stay tuned for more.

The name Keenwa is a blend of my first name and the place I’ve called home for most of my life. It captures the tone I strive for in my work: fresh, playful, grounded in personal experience. As Keenwa, I aim to create spaces where sound, image, and narrative coalesce into boundary-pushing art. Every project I take on is guided by my DIY ethos and a deep respect for the artists and stories at the heart of the work. People say this a lot, but art really is at the core of my life and I hope that I'm able to share some of the joy it brings with all of you.
