Old Child

Keep Dancing Inc

Un Plan Simple

WE SAY

Today sees the start of this year’s Eurosonic Noorderslag, and for the first time ever the festival will be fully digital and streamed on its ESNS website. So we thought we would take a look at a couple of the artists performing virtually there this year. First up is Parisian trio Keep Dancing Inc, who have been making waves with tastemakers here in the UK (including RotD) and Europe over the past twelve months with a series of infectious, electro-flavoured indie dance singles and their debut album Embrace in October. NME, DIY, the Line of Best Fit and the Daily Star all rated their debut album highly while their singles have had over 1,000 spins on major European radio in Germany, Austria, Netherlands, France and Portugal, plus support at BBC Radio 1 (Jack Saunders), 6 Music (Steve Lamacq, Lauren Laverne) and Radio X (John Kennedy). This sumptuous fusion of ’80s synthwave with modern indie-pop vibes is their most electronic track of the album and features a glorious instrumental part that makes you want to let loose. Watch them tonight (13 Jan) at 21.45 on ESNS 03.
