KeyDragon got it's name from the Keyboard Dragon originally created by Ron Langford in 1984. This Gothic metal band hails from Grass Valley, California which is in the middle of Northern California, USA. KeyDragon has been explained by Burt of Beowulf Productions.com as "They center their sound on Metal, but they toss is Thrash, Doom, Classic Rock, Death, Progressive Metal & even some Jazz sounds too. The vocals are done in a mid ranged almost Death growl with some female vocals in the back. This is a different sounding band with a lot of originality!!!" KeyDragon has recently solidified into a 5 piece band with Tamara Venus Star as the lead tribal vocalist. The group is currently working on their 5th and greatest album at KeyDragon Studios. The sound is focused on Gothic Metal and Tamara sings lead on most of the songs. We are currently involved with a number of organizations to promote the new album and gain exposure for the band.
