Background[]
Keaton Robert Stromberg was born in Tarzana, California on July 16, 1996 to William Stromberg and Laraine Claire. He has a brother named Wesley, two nephews named Isaac and Rory, and two sisters, Brooke and Brianna. He also has and uncle named Robert Stromberg who was the director for the film Maleficent, "Avatar", "OZ the Great and Powerful" and "Alice in Wonderland".
Father, William Stromberg, is a film composer with two Grammy nominations. Keaton gets his musical talent from both sides of his family with his mother, Laraine Claire who is a professional harpist and composer. Keaton began with the piano at 6, then picked up the guitar and bass when playing music with his older brother, Wesley. As the kid whose house was always rocking with music, after school Keaton would bring home friends for impromptu concerts.
In between summers spent at the Sequim skate park and winters snowboarding at Hurricane Ridge, Keaton would record music for hours on his Mac computer, learning all the newest LogicPro technology. In school, Keaton sang in select choir and at 14 was invited to perform at Carnegie Hall. By 15, it became evident he was going to pursue a career in music and made the hard decision to leave his hometown and move to California with his brother, Wesley. The family packed up and landed in Huntington Beach. It was hard to make friends at first, but the time alone was spent recording new music with Wes and Drew. On breaks they would hit the beach, surf until sunset, then get back to recording again.
Band Beginnings
Keaton was originally "forced" into the band by his brother Wesley. He quit the band temporarily saying during a performance saying that "they sucked". But he eventually came back later. Keaton also wasn't very enthusiastic about moving to California with the rest of the band, but soon followed them. He played many small shows with the band before auditioning for The X Factor (USA). He was very thankful about getting through the audition and finishing off 4th place.
Keaton does many covers on Youtube and wrote a song about his deceased grandfather whom he loved very much.
