Accompanied by the raucous Tiny Gun, fronted by Subway Takes’ own Kareem Rahma, Le Keep premiered a debut set. The five-piece delivered rich, melodic indie that, as is true to songwriter Steele Kratt, pulled on the audience's heartstrings. It must be noted that Steele, changed clothes multiple times, bearing his ass, mid-song during the set. Unfortunately, that wasn’t photographed as thoroughly as it should’ve been.
The evening was full of celebration and controlled chaos, which saw droves of enterprising walk-ups trying to enter the sold-out event with fake tickets and cash bribes. The night showed us that Le Keep is a new face in the New York City music scene, and this is only the beginning.
