Brian Keenan is a singer-songwriter living in Brooklyn, NY. After releasing 3 full length records with his cosmic Americana outfit Proud Simon, Keenan enlisted the talents of producer Jamie Candiloro (Ryan Adams, R.E.M., Willie Nelson) to record his debut solo LP, "Today This Year" at Avatar Studios in New York City. A 9-piece band recorded live in the famed studio, then mixed the record in Los Angeles at Candiloro's studio.
