John Keeble

John Keeble (born 6 July 1959 in London) is a British pop musician, who is the drummer with the 1980s new wave band, Spandau Ballet.

Spandau Ballet disbanded in 1990, after their final studio album, Heart Like a Sky, failed to live up to the critical and commercial success of their earlier albums, such as True and Parade.

In 1999, John Keeble, along with fellow band members Tony Hadley and Steve Norman, attempted to sue former Spandau Ballet guitarist, Gary Kemp, for alleged unpaid royalties.[1] They claimed that an agreement had existed between Kemp and the rest of the band, whereby Kemp, who was the main songwriter in the band, would pay his bandmates a share of the royalties earned. The claims were vigorously denied by Kemp, and Keeble, Hadley and Norman subsequently lost their court case.[2] Although initially vowing to appeal the verdict, they later decided against this.[3]

Keeble has consistently played in the Tony Hadley band, and was on tour throughout 2006.

He has also formed his own band, I PLAY ROCK, with whom he plays drums.

On 25 March 2009, John Keeble joined the rest of his original classic-line-up Spandau Ballet bandmates for a press conference at HMS Belfast, to announce that the band had reformed for a world tour starting in Dublin in October 2009.
