KeyDragon came about many years ago from the mind of Ron Langford. The fascination with the Dragons has been with Ron since 1982 when he and his brother Dave first met Gary Gygax's cousin in the hills of North San Juan. Gary Gygax is the creator of TSR and Dungeons & Dragons. When Gary's cousin first introduced the game, they were extremely interested. They played all night long and later Ron re-created the game to play with his friends at school. The fascination turned into an obsession when Ron discovered Dragons. The creative combined with power, strength, and intelligence appealed to the very core of Ron. He quickly studied everything there was on Dragons and found that he was forever transformed by their existence. Ron became the keyboard Dragon in 1986 and soon created the identity of KeyDragon, keyboardist and screamer for hire. Many years later, KeyDragon came to the realization that he would have to create his own band in order to write songs about Dragons. In 1998, KeyDragon was formed and their first album was released on Halloween in the year 2000.
