Keaton Simons Celebrates BEAUTIFUL PAIN Album With High Profile Appearances

Best Revenge recording artist Keaton Simons made an array of high profile appearances celebrating his acclaimed new album, "BEAUTIFUL PAIN."

Simons is slated to make a pair of major TV appearances. First up, the Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter visited the nationally syndicated Ellen DeGeneres Show for an exclusive live performance of the new album's first single and title track, "BEAUTIFUL PAIN" (check local listings) on June 10th. Simons was then featured in his role as celebrity judge on NBC's new singing competition show, The Winner Is.

The appearances follow Simons' recent performance on the highly rated season finale of Showtime's award-winning comedy, Californication. The series' star, David Duchovny, a partner in Best Revenge Records also makes a special guest appearance in the "BEAUTIFUL PAIN" companion video clip, which can be viewed now at Simons' official YouTube channel, www.youtube.com/user/keatonsimons06.

Long hailed as a dynamic and engaging live performer, Simons will join forces with fellow troubadours Ryan Cabrera and Jason Castro for a stellar singer/songwriter showcase this Monday, June 10th, at New York City's The Studio at Webster Hall. Additional North American live dates will be announced shortly for up-to-the-minute tour information, please visit www.keatonsimons.com/shows.

Simons' second full-length release, "BEAUTIFUL PAIN" was released earlier this year on his own Best Revenge Records, distributed by ADA/Warner Music Group. Co-produced by Mikal Blue (Jason Mraz, Colbie Caillat, OneRepublic), the album marks the talented tunesmith's finest moment thus far, expertly capturing the creativity and passion that led the Los Angeles Times to proclaim him "a triple threat... with enough sound and charisma to fill an arena."

A gifted multi-instrumentalist in his own right, Simons is ably assisted throughout "BEAUTIFUL PAIN" by such studio giants as bassist Alex Al (Michael Jackson, Paul Simon), percussionist Lenny Castro (Fleetwood Mac, The Rolling Stones), Tower of Power trumpet player/trombonist Bill Churchville, keyboardist Zac Rae (Jason Mraz, Lana Del Rey), drummer Robin DiMaggio (Paul Simon, Steve Vai), and singer/songwriter/actor Tyler Hilton (One Tree Hill).

With his compelling songs, stirring melodies, and captivating on-stage energy, Simons has earned well-deserved acclaim as a truly distinctive songwriter and live performer. His songs have been featured in a stunning range of film and television projects, including Sons of Anarchy, Private Practice, NCIS, and many others, while he has personally performed on such shows as NBC's The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Last Call with Carson Daly, CBS' The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, and VH1's Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew. The latter appearance which saw Simons alongside his stepfather, legendary actor Eric Roberts featured a performance of his song, "Unstoppable," which quickly saw the track draw over 10,000 downloads on the iTunes Store in just two days.
