Keanu Reeves Shares Passion for Music
Reeves has spoken about how grateful he is to be able to do so many things he loves. In an interview with Q104.3 New York’s QN’A in 2023, he said, “I feel really lucky and grateful. I love working, I love working hard, I love being dedicated. I love the feeling of believing in a vision and wanting to make it happen. …[Films and music are] about people being on the same page and collectively coming together on stage with your talent and your craft, your passion.”
The “John Wick” actor also spoke about his love of the bass guitar. “You know, I love the bass, I love playing in a band, I love touring, making music, writing songs. I love the instrument,” he said.
In the interview, Reeves was asked about the process of creating film and music, and which he preferred or found easier. “They’re both super collaborative art forms, for the most part. A movie, for sure,” he said. “The differences are kind of technical. You look at the credits of a film, there are sometimes thousands of people. You look at the end credits of an album, maybe there are 12 names.” But creatively, it was playing music.
“The music, trying to invent a song, a riff, and then that idea of trying to bring it out, crafting it and then going into the studio,” Reeves explained. “The relationship with the band and the producer, how are you shaping the script? The engineer is a kind of cinematographer/production designer, set designer, making sure we’re capturing the sounds. The artists are kind of like the writings and performers, the actors.”
