Keith Middleton

Keith "WildChild" Middleton has spent his life turning rhythm into connection. A voting member of the Recording Academy for more than a decade, Keith is best known for his 20-plus years as a featured performer in the New York cast of STOMP. During that time, he traveled the globe, performing in more than 40 countries and starring in the IMAX film Pulse: A Stomp Odyssey. His career has also included appearances in film, television, commercials, and live productions around the world.

Offstage, Keith became a respected force in New York City's underground hip-hop and spoken-word scene, performing with his group HYDRA and the renowned collective ThePLAGUE. His debut spoken-word album, TRANSITIONS, combined original music, poetry, funk, soul, jazz fusion, dance, and hip-hop, showcasing the diverse artistic influences that continue to shape his work today. Keith later co-founded LEVELS, an international music project uniting American, Italian, Brazilian, and Japanese artists through a shared passion for rhythm, creativity, and cultural exchange. 

Today, Keith brings all of those experiences together in BoomBoomClapTV, the educational children's entertainment brand he created to inspire the next generation through music, movement, storytelling, and joy. Designed for young learners, BoomBoomClapTV transforms everyday lessons into interactive adventures filled with original songs, colorful characters, and positive messages that encourage curiosity, confidence, and creativity. 

Whether performing for families, students, Grammy members, or audiences around the world, Keith's mission remains the same: to use rhythm as a universal language that brings people together, sparks imagination, and makes learning impossible to resist.
