K and K Gospel Mime


Keith and Karl Edmonds "K and K Mime" (born 1978) are Identical African American twins who were the first to start miming in the Gospel Ministry. They silently interpret contemporary Gospel music with dramatic gestures and animated facial expressions, portraying man's resistance to life's evil temptations and His transformation from doubter to believer. The artist began eighteen years ago. Then, the now 32-year-old Pittsburgh natives would act out scripture passages while wearing makeup, gloves and preaching robes. Eventually they decided to act out gospel songs. Before long, their pastime morphed into a full-on mime act performance in front of famous gospel artists including Donnie_McClurkin and Kirk_Franklin. They have also made several appearances with T._D._Jakes and Paul_S._Morton. Keith and Karl orchestrate their own choreography with expression that touches the heart, mind and spirit. Through their innovative work, these artistic brothers have enhanced and expanded the Gospel ministries for churches, universities, youth events, nation concerts, tours, conventions, conferences, ect.

Early Life and Career Beginnings
Keith and Karl Edmonds were born in 1978, and raised in Pittsburgh. The twins were born and raised through the foster care system. They were forced to move from house to house and shelter to shelter. Having many hardships, Keith and Karl were only fueled to pursue their dreams and determination of doing something larger than life. The twins eventually found a steady home and had a foster mother who used to make them act out the words of scriptures. At first, they found this boring; so the twins decided to enhance what she was doing by putting on makeup and decided to mime to gospel music. When they were in their hometown of Pittsburgh, K and K mime "The Godfathers of Miming", did an opening act for a Kirk Franklin Concert. The twins mimed to Kirk_Franklin's song "Letter To My Friend". When they were done, they exited the stage an while making their way back to the dressing room, they ran into Kirk Franklin & The Family, who had tears in their eyes. After that, Kirk asked the twins to travel with him and they accepted his offer. In 1990, on the twins down time at home, the phone rang and it was Bobby_Jones_(singer) who said Kirk called him and recommended the boys to be on his program. Bobby_Jones_(singer) asked the boys to come and be a part of his television show. The boys agreed and their gift of miming exploded at the age of sixteen.
