Keith Johns is a singer-songwriter from Miami.

The category of “guy with a guitar sings earnest songs about love” is a pretty crowded one, but Johns’ playing and lyrics are good enough that the music stands out on its own.

His debut EP, Maps & Plans, came out last year. You can preview and download it here for the low cost of one email address.

His first full-length record will be called Grateful Fool. It’s due out this fall.
