He is also an artist and writer. He plays wurlitzer and fiddle for Austin, Texas country-folk band Brothers and Sisters.
Born in England of Irish and Thai descent[citation needed], Conrad grew up in Thailand[citation needed], the U.S. state of Hawaii and Bedworth, England.[citation needed] He then moved with his family to Olympia, Washington, where he attended The Evergreen State College, before settling in Austin, Texas.

Artwork
Prior to his interest in becoming a musician, Keely, an avid fan of the X-Men, aspired to be an artist for Marvel Comics. He even noted that, as a reference to Secret Wars, he wanted to include a New Mutants character in the collage cover art of Worlds Apart.[1] Keely has commonly incorporated his drawings and paintings into Trail of Dead's album art and has displayed his works at the RIATS Fest.
