“Keeton is a four headed monster,” says Steve Said (Collective Soul, New Radicals, Current buyer for Dosey Doe in Houston TX. “Great artists have three great weapons - singer, songwriter, instrumentalist. Keeton is all of those with a fourth - he is a captivating frontman!”
Keeton has entered a new chapter. Since releasing the highly praised album, Hard Times in 2021, the formerly branded Americana artist from Houston has how traded the vintage telecaster for his drum machines, Juno synthesizer and oversized red sunglasses to match.
The black and white has gone full color. The Heartland Rocker has sold his soul to a Neon Ghost.
Still, on the stage… the Heartland Rock and Roll and Americana pulse that coursed through Keeton’s previous albums still thrives on stage, perfectly blended and through the new sound.
Cutting teeth through years of 3 hour pub gigs, Keeton still loves the thrill of pulling a crowd in with a Springsteen hit like “Dancing In The Dark” or Petty’s “You Wreck Me”… the music is for them.
“Cinematic Pop” are the words Keeton uses to describe the music he creates. His new sound is The 1975 meets INXS - they jump in a 1985 Corvette, Springsteen at the wheel, Beck riding shotgun, the sounds of NIN blasting from the speakers as they head to a U2 concert.
The forthcoming album - set for release in 2024 - has been named Coefficient of Fiction and leads off with singles Violet (Feb 2024), Kathryn (April 2024), CODA (June 2024) and Little Wonder (August 2024).
