Keane September 17, 2006

Riding high on their 2004 debut release, 'Hopes and Fears,' the British band Keane unleashed their melodic, uplifting pop in the same musical neighborhood as Coldplay, Starsailor and Travis. With their latest, 'Under the Iron Sea,' they plan to raise the bar even further. London's Razorlight came together in 2002 around vocalist/guitarist Johnny Borrell and guitarist/vocalist and Swedish ex-pat Bjorn Agnen. The group's early demos took UK radio by storm, leading to them being signed to Mercury. Their debut, 'Up All Night,' finally came out in August 2004, after the band made acclaimed appearances at festivals and the 2004 SXSW Conference among other gigs.
