A proud Houstonian and native Texan, Keen's career can best be summed up in five words: "The road goes on forever." Those few words from Keen's calling-card anthem just about say it all! And no doubt, most of his fans throughout the world will complete the lyric with the next five words: "And the party never ends!"
Robert Earl has blazed a peer, critic, and fan-lauded trail that has earned him "living-legend" status in the Americana music world. Keen has toured extensively both nationally and internationally and has been touted as "one of the Lone Star State's finest (not to mention top-drawing) true singer-songwriters." This led to his induction into the Texas Heritage Songwriter's Hall of Fame in 2012 along with fellow Aggie and close friend, Lyle Lovett. More recently, he has performed with such music legends as Dave Matthews, Bonnie Raitt, Sheryl Crow, and Eric Church among others, and was also honored in 2015 as the "first recipient of BMI's official Troubadour Award."
Fortunately, for his fans, he'll be kicking off the first weekend of Mardi Gras-Galveston! by taking center stage at The Grand - the place he calls his "favorite gig!"
