    Acting offers Keli the chance to walk through life wearing another's shoes. In fact, he often mirrors characters after people he knows who share similar attributes.

    "If you know people like that, you can think of them and you know what the role will be," he said. "I know how this character is supposed to be, because I've seen it before."

    To play faux-British rocker ‘Bobby Love’ in “The Naked Brothers Band” he drew from his own personality, including his love of being center stage.

    "Something we have in common is we both love to perform, and love to be on stage in front of the cameras," he said. Although Price and his alter ego share the tendency to “ham it up,” the similarities end there. "He has this evil spark about him that I don't have."

    Prior to the Nickelodeon series, Keli starred in the 2005 independent movie “Bug Boy,” playing the son of an alcoholic mother and an absentee father. His character, Danny, found an escape through his passion for horses and eventually trained to become a jockey.

    In addition to acting, Keli writes songs and plays the acoustic and electrical guitars.  He also draws from personal experience when writing songs that are based on "things that have happened to me and emotions I have felt."

    Although he clearly keeps himself busy, Keli’s favorite thing to do is hang out with his brother Nikko, who also acts and plays the guitar. The two "always jam" when they’re not wakeboarding or playing sports.  Keli may be talented and ambitious, but at heart, he’s just a norma
