Биография

'Focussed writing and distinctive vocals...' - Tom Robinson, BBC6 Music In 2016, Michael Kilbey began uploading a series of raw demos, which captured the imagination of listeners, notably on Twitter where his fan-base quickly grew into the thousands. Citing influence from The Smiths, Pink Floyd, King Adora, My Vitriol, these are emotive, expansive songs about the struggle to exist, imbued with a certain romance and sense of defiance that promises there is something worth fighting for. Alienation, fantasy, death & intimacy are among the key themes explored; arrangements often of a filmic style with weaving strings, surreal lyrics and dramatic highs. The past 12 months have witnessed two sell-out London shows. With demand to extend beyond London, a worldwide tour is in the planning for 2021. With his first full album 'Remote Possibilities' set for release in Autumn 2020, Kilbey appears suitably poised to embody the yearning voice of the so frequently dubbed ‘lost generation’.
