If Alison Goldfrapp and Portishead conceived a baby while Björk watched, the end product would no doubt be rising dream pop virtuoso KEANA. Based in Los Angeles, KEANA is best known for her delicately fluid and imaginative universe of trip hop and electronic ambience; a crystalline dream sequence-like universe she carefully crafted as the sole writer and producer of her work. Her previous singles “The Fall” and “Sway” received critical praise for her hard-hitting atmospheric soundscapes and mystic lyrics, garnering praise from respected publications such as Earmilk and Atwood Magazine.

KEANA’s music has been described as “Atmospheric Trip-Hop”, “Lush Dream-Pop”, and “Grimes meets Lana Del Rey”.

Broken 8 Records had this to say: “The song (Lilac) features dreamy vocals and layers of rich musical textures over beautifully crafted synth-pop soundscapes.”

1stDayFresh chimes in with: “The visuals for “Lilac” create a vivid landscape that feel as if you’ve been transported to a planet where nostalgia is mixed with the future, and freedom is the only word.”
