Braxton Keith calls San Antonio home, but the 20-something
songwriter hasn’t spent much time there in recent years. He leaves town nearly
every weekend, driving his band— and his own tour bus toward the next show. “That
bus is actually the only vehicle I own,” he says. “I drive it everywhere I go.”
Whether he’s onstage or behind the wheel, Braxton doesn’t
just play country music. He lives it. Inspired by the traditional twang of
storytellers like Marty Robbins and Merle Haggard, he writes songs that blend
modern sounds with the best elements of old-school country. It’s a balance of
the contemporary and the classic, glued together by a proud Texas native who’s
learned to create autobiographical music about universal experiences.
