To begin with, Keenan was raised in Oxford; his father was a former musician, who later worked as a local real estate developer in New Orleans. Passing his youth in New Orleans, Keenan started playing guitar very early thanks to his father, and joined the Graveyard Rodeo group. During their concerts in the region, he became friends with members of the Corrosion of Conformity group, and finally joined them in the early 1990s as a second guitarist. After the departure of Karl Angell in 1993, Keenan became the singer of the group. Together with the band, he has released nine studio albums, 11 singles and Eps; the most successful albums were “Blind” (1991) and “Deliverance” (1994).

However, his commitments with this group were sporadic, and allowed Keenan to continue his career with Corrosion of Conformity. Alongside the band Pepper released two albums in 1995 and 2002, and went on tour in Europe. Pepper is a friend of the leader of Metallica James Hetfield, which allowed him to sing one of the verses of the song “Tuesday’s Gone” from the album “Garage Inc.” (1998) of Metallica.

At the moment, both buildings are still without electricity so Keenan with the family live at Lake Charles, Louisiana.
