Information
21+ / www.carolspub.comMemphis Kee knows exactly what they are and what theyre not. Theyre not trend-chasers or opportunists looking for a quick payoff. Theyre veterans of a music scene that blends country grit with rock energy. Intricacy and force. Lyricism and feel. Oklahoma and Texas. As more rock-edged Red Dirt makes a resurgence, Memphis Kee has been firmly and confidently planted on the front lines, perfecting this sound not adopting it. This powerhouse Austin-based quintet has spent the past several years building a loyal fanbase and touring on the strength of the overwhelmingly positive reception to their previous LP, Wimberley. Now, with the release of their highly anticipated sophomore album, they showcase Kees powerful vocals and sharply aware songwriting, backed by the bands technical skill and sonic agility. Memphis Kee is poised to stand out in this compelling new generation of Red Dirt acts.The bands new album, Dark Skies, showcases the evolution of their sound and perspective. A follow-up to the bands initial EP, 6th s line-up includes Memphis Kee (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Spencer Carlson (lead guitar, harp, vocals), Paul Pinon (drums), Joey Sisk (bass), Chris Loyd (keys, guitar, vocals) and Jake Waylon (second guitar, keys, organ, harmonica, mandolin, and harmony vocals). Jamie Lin Wilson lends co-lead, background vocals and a co-write to the song Bewitched. Kee explains that the The Dark Skies concept is essentially twofold one negative and one positive. Things are very ominous in the world lately, things seem uncertain, and its been hard on a lot of people, he continues. So I think thats part of the shift in tone and the subject matter. But, theres a brighter side. My seven-year-old daughter McKinley and I share a deep connection through our love of space.. If you listen to the record, youll see theres some sort of celestial or skyward reference in every song. Some are literal or figurative, and some are deeper, talking about time moving forward at different speeds. This event is 21 and over.
