Keaton Simons keeps you tapping and snapping

1018956.jpgIn today's segmented music world, Los Angeles singer, songwriter and guitarist Keaton Simons would probably sit somewhere between John Mayer and Jack Johnson. But his artistic style, a penchant for crafting seamlessly soulful pop songs with plenty of rhythm and smooth hooks, also harks back to Van Morrison's heyday. On his full-length debut CD, the just-released Can You Hear Me on the relaunched CBS Records, Mr. Simons wrote all 11 tracks solo. His songs, from "Good Things Get Better" to "Can You Hear Me" and many points in between, will keep your foot tapping and your fingers snapping. He'll do it all without histrionics, too.
