About Keenan Cahill

For another, at the young age of 18, Cahill has achieved International success initially with the just the help of his iMac that he received for his 13th birthday. The Elmhusrt Illinois teen rose to fame with a series of hugely entertaining self-produced videos of himself singing and lip-syncing the hottest top 40 hits. Keenan switched over to lip-syncing to find his audience. Keenan would return to singing the songs once he gained an audience of over 459-million.Keenan released his first original song on July 31st, 2012 titled "Hands Up" with UK sister-duo Electrovamp and is releasing the music video on November 20th, 2012 premiering it in the US on The Insider.
