About the artist
Keo
Keo are an alt-rock outfit from London with an intensity and depth that evokes both nostalgia and urgency. Led by brothers Finn (vocals, guitar) and Conor Keogh (bass) and completed by drummer Oli Spackman and guitarist Jimmy Lanwern – Keo’s origins trace back to Plymouth, Portugal, Ireland and the US – with the Keogh brothers spending their youth touring much of the UK, Ireland and the US in their father’s traditional Irish folk project. Most recently, Keo took to the rainbow stage at BST Hyde Park with Kings Of Leon, The Vaccines and Paulo Nutini. Grabbing the attention of festival goers as they opened the stage for the day, and solidifying their spot as ones to watch in the alternative rock sphere. Bridging the gap between 90’s grunge, shoegaze and alternative rock, the band note the influence of Jeff Buckley, Radiohead and The Smashing Pumpkins on their work, with further contemporary inspiration coming from acts including Wunderhorse and Fontaines D.C.
