Mini bio
A life in stories.
Born to actors Donald Sutherland and Shirley Douglas, Kiefer grew up in Canada and began acting as a teenager. Stand by Me and The Lost Boys helped establish his screen career. In 2001 he began playing Jack Bauer in 24, later starring as Tom Kirkman in Designated Survivor.
Songs that became a record.
His recording career began with a smaller plan: in early 2015, he played Jude Cole two songs he hoped to demo for other artists. Cole encouraged him to keep recording. Those sessions became the eleven-song Down in a Hole, released in 2016.
Finding his own voice.
Reckless & Me followed in 2019 and reached the UK Albums Chart’s top ten. Bloor Street arrived in 2022, produced by Chris Lord-Alge. For Grey, released in May 2026, Kiefer says he shifted from observations toward the personal feelings he had been working through.
