Quinn Keon's own brand of "Attitude Rock" is a full-on guitar assault. Quinn says the origin of his music comes from life itself. He draws on his own experiences from the most basic to more complex feelings. Some of Quinn's favorite "high-energy influences" range from short skirts and high heels to 4-wheel drive mud trucks and high-powered rifles.
Quinn Keon says he represents the working class. "You have to work a little harder if you want to play. Nothing has come easy for me. It’s a lot of hard work and determination every day and the perseverance to overcome many obstacles."
With his unique style combining melody and brute force edge, Quinn is able to deliver a dynamic musical performance. With several vocal and instrumental compositions in his arsenal, Quinn shows that he is fully capable of switching gears with his guitar style, but when he downshifts into "Attitude Rock" you’d better hold on 'cause it’s one hell of a ride.

Second Attempt...Failure Reviews
failure?? No Way! Gonzo!!
Reviewer: fisherman
this cd rocks! old school Ted Nugent style guitar playing with down to earth vocals. reminds me of NWOBHM productions. no gimmick hard rock. heads down and party on!
The songs sound like they should be performed in arenas..."Becky" hints at his capability to create something a bit fresh and different.

I like the guitar sound...They play balls to the wall rock n roll and I liked the disc.

We were then greeted with aggressive metal riffs, but Lemmy-like caterwauling...we're fairly sure there's a great deal of ass-shaking happening at the live show. From what we can see, Quinn's got a nice torso under that shirt and that's always good for some female swooning.

Personal Notes
Yes, I know that the Lonely Days Passin' CD is far and away from "Attitude Rock" but I felt like doing it...it's that simple. I had several songs written that were just me with an acoustic guitar and I wanted to record them. I write based on what I feel and I have many feelings. Many of you dig it and that's cool. I dig it too. However, for those of you that just want to rock, I have some kick-ass new material that I am starting to record along with some of the "old" stuff. This next CD is going to be a near overdose of attitude with a barrage of guitar licks that are capable of downing a ballistic missile. Hold on, keep checking in, and as always THANK YOU for your support.
