Another hugely talented young man is Keith LuBrant who has just released his "Face In The Crowd" debut CD. If talent was the only thing that you needed to make you famous then Keith would be a household name as he's that good. This is great PowerPop. - Rob Evans
With hints of Third Eye Blind, Toad the Wet Sprocket, poppier Goo Goo Dolls, and some elements of 80's glam and current brit-pop and alt-rock, this CD rocks straigh ahead. Very tight playing thanks to a rock-solid rhythm section and excellent production - radio-friendly but not overly sweet, definitely some edge, especially in the guitars and riff-laden and occasionally quirky arrangements.
In the context of this being an indie release, and a debut release, it is no small feat that "Face In The Crowd" stands up to most of what's on rock radio these days, through 14 solid songs. Definitely someone to keep an eye on, all he needs is one big break and you'll be hearing him on your local "new rock" FM station!

Gin Blossoms, Goo-Goo Dolls, and Marvelous 3 are just a few of the bands you seem to favor.The first four tracks have airplay, more airplay, and fan base written all over them. But, of course, the entire album is radio friendly. I have never heard anything so consistent. That EVERY track has the ability to hold it's own alone or with others.
The overal pop catchiness is quite the feat. Guitars and lyrics so hook-line-and-sinker leaving or ignoring is out of the question. The rhythm section is so tight and pop oriented that they can carry the meat and bread of your lyrics and riffs to levels most bands only dram of achieving. I can see this going farther than the average album. - Dustin Landrum

Bio
When having to look at influences, it seems that there is quite a diversity. But there is one common denominator. Whether it is The Goo Goo Dolls, Cheap Trick, or The Gin Blossoms, the one thing that always stands out is the artists ability to write a great hook. That is what hopefully comes across when listening to the music.
Keith signed on to Dreamscape Music group and plans to release the next CD in January 2003
