About Keith Burnstein

Keith Burnstein is a New Orleans based singer-songwriter and pianist who pens timeless tunes to live by. His is a new American songbook, one that draws as much from Tin Pan Alley as it does from modern geniuses like Jeff Tweedy, Keith Jarret and Dr. John. “The songs, while instantly familiar, remain very much their own creations” (Secret Sound Shop),  “combining the bedroom intimacy of a singer-songwriter” (Seven Days VT) with the rich harmonic palette of early jazz, R&B, and Afro-Latin influences.

About Mr Dial Has Something to Say

(6o minutes) Mr. Dial Has Something to Say asks the following questions: What is the meaning and history of this movement? Who are the artists and why do they create? Has Afro-American improvisational visual art been disregarded by the mainstream art world as less important? Have terms such as “outsider,” “visionary,” “primitive,” “folk,” “self-taught,” and “naïve”—all of which have been applied to this particular style—downgraded the importance of this art?
