Landing somewhere between Dexys Midnight Runners and a jumper ready to be unravelled, Keg take pleasure in creating music which straddles chaos and knitwear. Preferring to delve into a diverse well of influences, the 7 instrumentalists that make up KEG have created, in new EP ‘Girders’, a world within a world. However, despite the feracious songs on offer, the band insist didn’t intend to “make consistently unrelenting and abrasives songs, they just ended up sounding that way.” The EP, as they say, really does go.
Keg have toured the UK extensively, bringing their enthralling live show to the masses while sharing stages with the likes of Squid and Yard Act. ‘Girders’, set for release 2nd September via Alcopop Records/BMG, was recorded and produced with Daniel Fox of Gilla Band. First single ‘Kids’ has earned the support of DIY, NME, BBC 6Music and BBC Radio 1 among others. This summer they will play Latitude, Green Man, End of The Road and a host of other festival dates.
