Keith Hanson ( Eng. Keaton Henson ; March 24, 1988 , London , UK ) - British folk-rock musician, singer-songwriter, artist and poet. Became recognizable thanks to its musical and artistic creativity. His art show “Hithermost” was held in London galleries such as Pertwee, Anderson and Gold gallery in January 2013, where all the tickets were sold. He also released a wordless graphic novel called “Gloaming” (published by Pocko, which is essentially a guide to the spiritual world beyond our reality). Keaton has a fear of the stage, and therefore he gives concerts extremely rarely (he sings and plays the guitar).
