Iconic Cardiff band The Keys release seasonal 'Christmas E.P.' on See Monkey Do Monkey

27/11/2009

Reacting to a music industry in flux, earlier this year The Keys set out on a mission to release four EPs over the course of a year. The Christmas E.P is the second one in this series, and was recorded in their own studio on sixteen track tape; it’s this that gives it an authenticity and personality that many modern over produced releases lack. The Keys’ new work shows their progression as an act, they’re still informed by their classic 60s pop influences but now each piece is more melodic and subtle; swirled with psychedelic patterns: informed by cult legends like 13th floor Elevators, The Velvet Underground and the Jesus and Mary Chain.
