Their music blurs the lines between various genres, including punk, shoegaze, and pop. Singer and songwriter Andrea Caccese recorded the first work on laptops and in random rooms, while traveling throughout the world. These new songs came out of a studio environment, filled with analog instruments and effects, making for a more intuitive, collaborative, and immediate approach.

Track info: Melt moves away from our shoegaze inspired debut album, taking its inspiration from Queens of the Stone Age and Sonic Youth. Signaling a stark direction change, Melt precedes a new ep that builds on these influences. Contact: fawnerband@gmail.com, Facebook & Bandcamp BAND: The Kecks SONG: All For Me - out 23rd Oct - another exclusive!! Cross continental Garage Rock purveyors The Kecks have emerged from Hamburg lockdown with their most self aware, emotionally powerful and poignant work to date, with new dark, raw, twisted, romantic fantasy ballad All For Me. Having once again teamed up with producer JB Pilon at London’s Buffalo Studio, the band have indulged a much wider array of their influences with this release, exploring the more flamboyant pop elements of their sound likened to the likes of Bowie, Pulp, and The Last Shadow Puppets. Being hailed by Consequence Of Sound as “The Strokes of Hamburg” - The Kecks could actually lay claim to being the least German band in Germany, with a cross continental lineup of members originating from Australia, the UK, Austria, and southern Germany. Having initially been founded on the back of a FlixBus on their way to see The Growlers play in Berlin, The Kecks have since established a reputation for writing brutally honest and somewhat unconventional indie-rock that has landed them on Radio X, BBC Radio 6, Amazing Radio and Spotify editorial playlists.
