Biography

The story starts in the year 2016 downtown at a Coffee Shop called Dough Re Mi. Adam used to run a daytime open mic and encouraged people to either perform and share their music or play along with him. Adam had accordion, banjo, and so many other instrument players come to the open mic. A regular, Ron Pugh was telling Kiara for over 2 months that she should come to this open mic at a coffee shop in town. He said it was really fun and we would have a wonderful time. Kiara told him “I’ll come one day soon.” One day she finally went to the open mic with her mother & friend. Key and her friend played a couple of tunes and jammed with the other musicians that were there. Adam started to play a chord progression that he was working on. Kiara started listening to him and then picked up her instrument and started playing along with him. It instantly clicked. It felt like the whole room just turned quiet and we were the only ones there. Adam said when she started playing along with it, it sounded like the background music to “Braveheart.” Adam would play things different in the song and Key would play the same thing. (it’s like she would know what he would play next.) After we got done we actually had someone come up to us and want to hire us to play that song in a local documentary. We said, “first off we don’t even know each other and we were just making it up as we went.” From that day forward we started working on our journey and practicing nonstop. We become Key to Adam, an instrumental duo in Upshur County, West Virginia that specializes in live ambient music for weddings and other special events. Kiara Williams plays the violin/fiddle, and Adam Moyer, who plays the Finger-style guitar. While we fill our schedule with weddings, malls, and special events, we really love to perform for retirement homes, hospitals, and schools. We get so much joy out of sharing our music. We both use our music as a way to help us through our own troubles, and knowing that it can help others is what makes us love what we do so very much!
