Singer and songwriter Mack Keane makes lyrical neo-soul- and R&B-infused pop. He first garnered attention with his 2016 single "Model Behavior" before further defining his intimately emotive style with a trilogy of EPs: 2019's Donna Ave and Aquanetta Dr, and 2020's Dry Creek Rd. In 2022, he collaborated with ESTA. on the EP Intersections, and he delivered the full-length Entries in 2025. The sonically atmospheric Wide Eyed arrived in 2026.
Born and raised in Los Angeles, Keane grew up in a creative household the son of veteran producer Tom Keane and actress/singer Paula Mulcahy, as well as the grandson of Del-Fi Records founder Bob Keane. Interested in performing from a young age, he started playing piano while in elementary school and spent time listening to his parents' record collection, imbibing the sounds of classic soul and R&B artists like Donny Hathaway, Earth, Wind & Fire, Steely Dan, and others. More contemporary influences followed as Keane discovered OutKast, Pharrell Williams, and Frank Ocean. By his teens, he was already an adept songwriter and performer, skills that found him enrolling at NYU's Clive Davis Institute of Music, where he began recording his material during his freshman year.
In 2016, Keane made a splash online with the '70s soul-inspired track "Model Behavior." A year later, he returned with his self-titled debut EP, featuring co-production from his father and Nathan East. From 2019 to 2020, Keane released a trilogy of deeply personal EPs, each named after a significant place in his childhood: Donna Ave, Aquanetta Dr, and Dry Creek Rd. An atmospheric stand-alone single, "Aaliyah," arrived in June 2021. In March 2022, he issued the Intersections EP, a collaboration with ESTA., also featuring contributions by Destin Conrad and Joyce Wrice. Included was the laid-back and soulful track "O.M.L."
Keane took his time with his next project, writing and developing tracks. He eventually began posting videos to social media, reading from his journal over beats. The process helped inspire his first full-length album, 2025's Entries. Self-produced, it found him embracing a synthy yet still organic '80s soul vibe, as evidenced by singles like "Y?," "All Talk," and the romantic "Sophia." He returned in 2026 with his sophomore album, Wide Eyed. Produced with Zack Sekoff and Sol Was, it found Keane embracing an even more sonically textural approach, weaving together atmospheric soul, psych, and gospel touches. Included were the singles "Candy Crush," "Bloodshot," and "Ordinary Feelings."
