Together with his wife Hollie, Keith also records as Mint Julep, and the two released their debut album \u201cSave Your Season\u201d which NME coined as \u201cUnquestionably Beautiful\u201d. A succession of albums under those aliases has made Kenniff the darling of discerning critics and his music has been widely used in film, tv and advertising, for clients such as Apple, Facebook, Google, Paramount, MTV and Warner Brothers.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;full_width_content&#8221;
