KEG

**KEG** is a London-based art-punk trio serving up jagged rhythms and deadpan British wit since their formation in 2018. Known for their angular guitar work, propulsive basslines, and dryly humorous lyrics about modern absurdities (see: their track "Michael Phelps" celebrating Olympic glory through sardonic repetition), the band—Albert Haddenham, George Parks, and Gus Hunt—blends post-punk precision with art-rock playfulness. Their 2023 debut album *Girders* (featuring fan favorites like "Elephant" and "NPC") solidified their reputation for wiry, danceable chaos, while recent singles like "Skybather" and "Fun's Over" showcase their evolving knack for tension-and-release dynamics. With live shows that oscillate between tightly wound grooves and controlled demolition, KEG has become a staple of the UK's DIY scene, sharing stages with contemporaries like Squid and Black Country, New Road.
