Dublin based artist Keeley is an accomplished singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, whose vocals are delivered with an uber-cool, likened to Deborah Harry, Nico and Shirley Manson. Following the success of her debut EP “Brave Warrior”, Keeley has been busy in the studio making the EP “Echo Everywhere“.
Having had her music played on BBC 6Music’s Steve Lamacq, BBC 6Music’s Radcliffe & Maconie, BBC Radio Ulster, BBC Radio Cymru, as well as SiriusXM and College Radio in the USA, reaching the number 1 spot on the Radio Indie Alliance charts, Keeley is gaining a wider fan base and whose recent releases signifies her growing popularity.
“Echo Everywhere” takes a more dreampop, shoegaze route, whilst remaining true to its post-punk roots. It’s an EP like its predecessor, “Brave Warrior”, which simultaneously uplifts and ponders in the vaults of new-wave, goth-rock and synth-pop, whilst navigating through the mist of ethereal rock.
The Glitter and the Glue – (Tipler remix) stays true to the original track, whilst providing a glossy makeover. Through the robust beats and deadpan vocals, The Glitter and the Glue delivers with an understated cool. It’s a fantastic track, whose choppy riffs suspend from the chains of post-punk and jangle from the disco balls of new-wave.
Never O’Clock, jangles in a new wave of dream-pop, whilst sun-drenched by the shoegaze showers. It’s a captivating track, whose textured tones blend effortlessly with the serene vocals. Along with the rumbling beats and dipping drones, Never O’Clock levitates from the lucid lineage of dark-wave, whilst being air-lifted by ethereal rock.
To A London Sunrise, spins, collides and rotates with the shoegaze debris of new wave, whilst floating freely within dreampop bubbles. It’s a sublime track that drifts through the hammond haze of goth-rock and navigates through the jangly riffs of dark-wave. Along with the sparse beats, To A London Sunrise creates a windswept ambience that gasps for air amongst the dreampop daze.
Echo Everywhere floats freely between the pathways of post-punk, whilst creating a new wave ambience. Through the jangly riffs and striking strums, Echo Everywhere reverberates from a neo-blues backroom, whilst peering from the dry ice mist of new-wave. Along with the tepid beats and piano-esque tinkle, Echo Everywhere revives the wonders of synth-pop, whilst sheltering from the shoegaze showers. It’s a dreamy track, whose sublime synths drift like mystical mist, whilst creating an arcane allure.
As of February 25th 2022, ‘Brave Warrior’ will be available on vinyl and CD. Both EPs are available now across online stores and streaming platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music and Bandcamp.
