Bristol New Music 2024

Keeley Forsyth presents ’The Hollow’

An immersive and ceremonial show by singer and composer Keeley Forsyth, performing new material from forthcoming LP ‘The Hollow’.

Keeley Forsyth is a singer, composer and actor from Oldham. Her two LPs to date, 2020’s ‘Debris’ and 2022’s ‘Limbs’, garnered critical attention with stark, iconoclastic and emotionally-raw aesthetics; at moments reminiscent of Nico or ‘Tilt’ era Scott Walker, but all her own. New album ‘The Hollow’ showcases a more widescreen sound of string arrangements, thudding drums, kinetic hits and Forsyth’s singular voice, pushed to its full range and capacity.

Bristol New Music takes place biennially across Bristol. It is a collaboration between four key organisations: Bristol Beacon, Spike Island, St George’s Bristol and the University of Bristol.
