‘the avenue’ by kleio
kleio are making waves with their latest indie anthem, 'the avenue', a standout track that encapsulates the band's evolution and creativity.
Following the success kleio’s single ‘yoko’ earlier this year, the group has captured the attention of audiences across Ireland, and this new release solidifies their growing reputation as one of the most exciting young bands on the scene.
The track kicks off gently, featuring a warm vocal delivery paired with a reflective guitar line. As it builds, the tension rises, culminating in a powerful indie-rock explosion. With lush guitar layers and heartfelt lyrics, ‘the avenue’ is nothing short of an energising anthem, expertly balancing a tight groove with huge, sing-along choruses.
Luke, the band’s lead songwriter, describes this song as a pivotal moment for kleio. “We didn’t set out to create something so cinematic,” he explains. “It just came together effortlessly. When we finished writing, we realised we’d crafted a sound we hadn’t explored before.” He adds that ‘the avenue’ represents a matured version of their sound while staying true to the themes of their earlier work.
Kleio’s ambition doesn’t stop at releasing music; they’ve already achieved sold-out shows in Waterford and Dublin and recently made their British debut supporting Irish indie favourites Barstaff in Manchester. With praise from outlets like Earmilk highlighting their vibrant sound, kleio is on the rise, and ‘the avenue’ is just the latest chapter in their exciting journey. This is a band ready to carve out their own musical legacy.
