Keith Austin
Executive Producer and Rockfiles Host

"I was just thirteen when my love affair with Rock n Roll began," says Keith, who recounts meeting Elvis Presley in 1957. "After shaking hands with Elvis, I went home and played "Heartbreak Hotel" a hundred times. From that afternoon on, I've felt, lived and loved Rock n Roll."

Not long after that memorable day, Keith began hosting a radio show on KLAS, and later on KENO. as well as producing a weekly televsion program for teens.

In 1962, Keith and fellow partner Steve Miller formed “Teen Beat Las Vegas,” a popular Saturday Television program featuring live music from the Teen Beat Nightclub in Las Vegas. Teen Beat became the rave of Las Vegas, and Keith Austin introduced artists like The Beach Boys, Bobby Vinton, The Surfaries and Bobby Rydell to the music scene. From 1962 to 1968, if it was Rock n Roll in Las Vegas, Keith Austin was right there in the middle of all the action.
