I’m Kieran. I’ve been in a band since I was a kid. I’d kind of given up on making it in music by the time I was 26. Then I fell in love with shoegaze and New York indie. I made a few demos like that and before I knew it people were interested. I went from cleaning student houses to playing the NME tour and travelling the world within a few months. Pretty mad.

Music full of life and energy. Loud drums and guitars are the backbone of the band. Then I just try to write cool melodies on top of that. 

The Beatles, The Strokes, Maccabees, Foo Fighters, Carole King and a bunch of other stuff. Anything with incredible melodies I’m a fan of. 

I was listening to lots of Thundercat and Tame Impala. Their music feels very much like a vibe you can sink into. I wanted the whistle and juno melody to wash over you hopefully as you drive your car into the sunset. Either that or just put a bounce in your step as you walk to work.
