Brian Kehew (born September 22, 1964) is an American, Los Angeles-based, musician and record producer. He is a member of The Moog Cookbook and co-author of the Recording The Beatles book, an in-depth look at the Beatles' studio approach.
Kehew performed on keyboards with The Who on portions of their 2006–07 touring schedule. He has worked as an instrument technician (primarily keyboards) for The Who's live performances beginning in 2002, and filled in on keyboards during absences of John Bundrick from the tour. Earlier live performances include appearances with the French electronic-based band Air, Hole, and Dave Davies.
Kehew is also known for his band The Moog Cookbook (partnered with former Jellyfish keyboardist Roger Joseph Manning, Jr.), which released two eclectic albums, The Moog Cookbook and Ye Olde Space Bande. The Moog Cookbook recreated well-known songs using vintage keyboard synthesizers. In 2006, The Moog Cookbook independently released a collection of previously unreleased material under the title, Bartell.
Kehew co-produced Fiona Apple's album Extraordinary Machine. He also worked in studio with artists such as Eels, Eleni Mandell, Aimee Mann, Matthew Sweet, Michael Penn, Andrew Sandoval, Prick, Beck, and Jon Brion. Mixing work includes Aretha Franklin, Talking Heads, Little Feat, Fleetwood Mac, Ramones, The Pretenders, Morrissey, Alice Cooper, The Faces, Eagles, Black Sabbath, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, The Stooges, MC5, Yes, Elvis Costello, Judee Sill, Rasputina, Crazy Horse, Tiny Tim, Gene Clark, Stone Temple Pilots and Saviour Machine.
