イングランド/ロンドン拠点のオルタナティヴロックバンド Keoが、5/28にリリースしたニューシングル 'Fly'を公開！
Keoは Finn Keogh, Conor Keogh, Oli Spackman, Jimmy Lanwernの4人組。
父親の伝統的なアイルランドフォークプロジェクトで英国、アイルランド、米国の多くをツアーしていたというKeogh兄弟を中心に結成されたバンドで、これまでに bdrmm, Enola Gay, Chappaqua Wrestlingと共演してます。
'Fly'のプロデュースは Brett Shaw (Foals, Florence + The Machine)。
alt-J, Wolf Alice, The Big Moonを擁するマネジメント会社 East City所属で、今月30日には BST Hyde Parkに出演する Kings of Leonのサポートという大役を任された期待のバンド。
The Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvanaみたいな90'sの王道を挙げたくなるような風格で、これから活躍しそうですね。
“Fly is about a relationship I was in as a teenager that continues to leave a bad taste in my mouth to this day. I wrote the song when I was still in the relationship at the age of 17, the lyrics “why can’t you leave this here” express my frustration with her making it difficult for me to leave, guilting me into staying. Some of the lyrics refer to trust using the analogy of it being our wings: 'It takes a while to mend your old wing and just a second to learn how it breaks'. The song also references some of the toxic habits we had and how within this toxicity was a middle ground of regret and longing for one another. 'Cry my name, I’ll call yours back' - for example. Even though the relationship was at a point where it was too far gone – I still feel the consequences of it all.” - Finn Keogh
