Hailing from Nottingham, United Kingdom, singer-songwriter, Katie Keddie has been capturing the attention of both local and worldwide audiences alike, since she released her 2019 debut single, ‘Eighteen’.
Since 2019, Katie has been seen on the stages of Dot to Dot, Beat the Streets, Rescue Rooms and Rough Trade, working with a multitude of inspiring artists and now returns with her latest single.
Written in 2019, Katie Keddie’s latest single release, ‘Comfort and Despair’ tells a story of being lifted up by the people around you when you are going through a challenging time.
“It really came to life just after lockdown when me and a group of close friends and musicians spent a week recording in a beautiful old mill in Wales. It will eventually be a part of my debut album ‘Alaska Sadness’ which I am so excited to share!” Katie Keddie
The emotional track opens with the sounds of crisp picked electric guitar and invites the airy vocals of Katie, as she sets the scene on the raw vulnerability within the story of the song. By the time the chorus begins, the listener is so entrenched in an atmospheric world of Katie Keddie’s making that you soar along with the catchy drum beats, ethereal vocals, tinkling keys and resounding guitar lines.
