Donovan Keith Music

Donovan Keith plays C-boy's Heart & Soul on Thursday, July 23, with the set starting at 10 PM. He's an R&B and soul artist based right here in Austin, so this is a local show in a room that fits the sound.

If you haven't caught him before, there's a good place to start: his voice is often described as carrying the weight of a lifetime of stories, and that's a fair way to put it. It's a voice that does a lot of the heavy lifting on its own, and it's what puts him in the R&B and soul tradition. He's performed across the U.S. and abroad, and his music has found its way into various films and television productions, so he's not exactly a secret, even if you've only heard him in the background of a scene.

He's currently represented by The Agency, and this show is billed as Donovan Keith Music. It's a late one, starting at 10 PM on a Thursday night, which puts it in that window where the evening has already settled in and the room is the main event. If you're into R&B and soul and want to hear an Austin artist who's played well beyond the city limits, this is a straightforward way to do it.

Donovan Keith, Thursday, July 23, at C-boy's Heart & Soul, starting at 10 PM.
