Keyside

Born from the streets, front rooms and fractured relationships of modern Britain, KEYSIDE make music that feels lived-in before it’s even heard. Fronted by Dani-Lee Parker, whose voice carries equal measures of grit and grace, the Liverpool four-piece bring an emotional honesty to their work that resonates far beyond any one city. Their songs move between the weight of dependency and quiet desperation to the uncomplicated joy of a summer afternoon, grounded in the specific detail of lives actually lived.

Their lyrics explore isolation, addiction, hope and redemption, turning everyday struggle into widescreen anthems. Tracks like ‘Angeline’, ‘Michael (What’s Your Call?)’ and ‘Runaway’ have marked them as natural songwriters, earning praise from Rolling Stone UK and Clash alongside radio support from BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music and Radio X.

With their self-titled debut album, Keyside, out now on Modern Sky, closing track ‘Echoes’, born from devastating personal experience, recounting the deterioration of a loved one through addiction and dependency, confirms their status as one of Britain’s most compelling new voices. Produced by Chris Taylor (The Coral, Blossoms), the album sets the stage for their biggest ever UK headline tour, concluding with a landmark hometown show at Liverpool’s Mountford Hall on 12 December.

KEYSIDE are: Dani-Lee Parker (vocals, acoustic guitar), Ben Cassidy (lead guitar), Max Gibson (bass, backing vocals), Oisín McAvoy (drums)
