KEETON COFFMAN RELEASES NEW ALBUM HARD TIMES
ON JUNE 18, 2021
DITTY TV DEBUT ON JUNE 16th FOR “HARD TIMES” VIDEO
ALBUM HARD TIMES OUT 6/18 || LISTEN HERE
Heartland rocker Keeton Coffman will release his new album Hard Times on 6/18/21. On Wednesday, 6/16, Keeton will make his Ditty Debut with the video for “Hard Times,” airing on Ditty TV at 10 pm CT.
Anchored in Coffman’s natural storytelling and earthy voice, Hard Times is both a reintroduction and a return for an artist who’s pushed through starts and stops, but who’s never been anything but exactly who he is. “I’ve never needed someone’s permission to write,” Coffman says. “I’ve always just thought it’s what I should do.”
Keeton's style of music evokes the small town Texas sound he grew up with, matched with the knuckle and grit of his true Rock and Roll soul. He cut his musical teeth in the Brazos valley, and even though he currently lives in Spring, it will always be home. Most of the characters from this record are rooted in his childhood growing up in Bryan and College Station.
“I hope people find themselves in the characters,” Coffman says. “This is a record I wrote from my experiences, but these aren’t stories about me. I hope these characters share your story, your thoughts, your pain. We can share the same hope––that’s what music does for me.”
BUZZ FOR KEETON COFFMAN
“…an atmospheric exploration of the themes weighing heavy on Coffman’s mind… Matching the tonality of Coffman’s words perfectly, the music behind “Magician” creates a palpable mood. Brooding with a neo-Western twist—but not without a tinge of melancholic hope—the song’s instrumentation peaks with a soaring climax. While the shadow-y feel is propelled in large part by the guitar tones, perhaps the true MVPs of the single are the texture sounds Coffman curated himself.” -American Songwriter
“…a courageous anthem that stings with power pop adhesiveness and jubilant guitar chords. Coffman echoes the sounds of his heroes while projecting his own flair of songwriting singularity.” – Glide Magazine
“…Coffman’s songwriting and musicianship, a soulful sound that harkens back to the days when rock n’ roll felt more stirring and emotional. It may remind you of the heartland rock sound of a young John Mellencamp, or the more Americana flair of Bruce Springsteen. Either way, you’ll be instantly attracted to what Coffman is serving up here.” – V13
“Everything is flawless – every note is perfect, every line delivered with emotional weight, and the tone of the track is somehow bittersweet and upbeat all at once.” – B-Sides & Badlands
