Keyside

Joiners Live presents Keyside. After a busy summer of major UK festival appearances — Tramlines, Truck Festival and Kendal Calling — we welcome the return of Liverpool's own melodic indie rockers Keyside to Southampton on Sunday, 6th December 2026, down at The 1865. Support comes from the excellent STRATA. Keyside's lyrics explore isolation, addiction, hope and redemption, turning everyday struggle into widescreen anthems. Tracks like Angeline, Nikita and Runaway have marked them as natural songwriters, earning praise and support from BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, Radio X and Amazing Radio. With their debut album arriving on 7 August, 2026 marks a defining year for the band. Produced by Chris Taylor (The Coral, Blossoms). Their latest single, 'Cocodamol', distils the hazy pleasure of nocturnal Gen Z life into three minutes of dopamine-surging melody — reaching for the nearest potion, or person, and asking no questions.
