Kevin Moore Biography

Kevin Moore is one of the most popular and richest Pianist who was born on May 26, 1967 in Long Island, New York State, United States. Former keyboardist for Dream Theater who turned to mixing psychedelic guitar with ambient sounds and spoken-word samples.

He and guitarist John Petrucci were bandmates in Dream Theater.

Moore, who was born on Long Island, New York, began his music career in Kings Park, Long Island, learning piano at the age of six and writing his first song at the age of 12. After graduating from high school in 1985, Moore briefly attended SUNY Fredonia, where he studied classical music, before returning home to form the band Majesty with childhood friends guitarist John Petrucci and bassist John Myung, who had recruited drummer Mike Portnoy (a fellow Long Islander) during their short enrollment at Berklee College of Music. Singer Chris Collins handled vocal duties for Majesty, but he was subsequently replaced by Charlie Dominici (and eventually James LaBrie) and the band was renamed Dream Theater.

Dream Theater’s debut studio album was 1989’s When Dream and Day Unite, which earned the group comparisons to well-known progressive rock bands such as Rush and Queensrÿche. Their big breakthrough, however, came in 1992 with the album Images and Words, featuring the band’s highest charting single to date, “Pull Me Under”. The song, which included lyrics by Moore, reached #10 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. Following their relentless touring in support of the second album, the band also went on to release a live album, Live at the Marquee, and a video, Images and Words: Live In Tokyo. The video’s extensive documentary footage would subsequently introduce many fans to Moore’s ironic sense of humor.

His family was residing on Long Island, New York, when he was born and recognized his talent early on, beginning him in piano lessons when he was six. He was 12 when he wrote his first song.
