Keeley Forsyth _UK

English singer, composer and actress Keeley Forsyth has forged a powerful, uncompromising and unique presence on the contemporary music scene in recent years. Grounded in the raw emotionality of her singular voice and striking physical performance, Keeley’s universe-building is infused with a steely sense of purpose and a stark, bleak beauty. Drawing inspiration from the rugged landscapes of her native North Yorkshire, the existential intensity of Samuel Beckett and Bela Tarr, Antonin Artaud’s Theatre of Cruelty and the neo-expressionist choreography of Pina Bausch, her work probes beneath the veneer of everyday life through a sharply styled monochrome visual aesthetic, exploring often dark and weighty themes. At L.E.V. Matadero she will perform her third and latest studio album The Hollow, released last spring on FatCat Records’ 130701 label.
