Vote Keanemusic.com for Best Official Website at the BT Digital Music Awards

In 2007, keanemusic.com was crowned Best Official Website at the BT Digital Music Awards. The following year, Keane was in second place.

Artist Of The Week: Keane - Last.fm



Keane‘s latest release, the EP Night Train, was released in May of this year. The songs, recorded all over the world, are culled primarily from scraps, leftovers and unfinished songs. Special guests include K’Naan on two tracks and Tigarah covering Yellow Magic Orchestra.

Click through to see their exclusive in-studio performances of “Stop For A Minute,” “Clear Skies,” My Shadow” from Night Train. By request, they make me happy and go back to the debut album Hopes And Fears to do a stunning version of “Bend And Break.” Be sure to listen to their interview which details the making of this eclectic EP and stories behind some of the songs.


Last.fm Discover gladly welcomed Tom Chaplin, Tim Rice-Oxley, Richard Hughes and Jesse Quin of Keane to our studio following the release of the Night Train EP. Instead of the traditional ways of recording, Keane used studios in Berlin, Brisbane, Copenhagen, London, Los Angeles, Paris and Washington, DC during the Perfect Symmetry world tour. “ We're not very good at having a sort of a formula and sticking to it, but I think that's a good thing.

” Tim Rice-Oxley
This release is built around the K’Naan collaborations. The band’s original idea was to get Kanye West for “Looking Back” and get that “west coast vibe” to it, laid back, funky and soulful. Once they put together “Stop For A Minute,” they decided to go with K’Naan who they were fans of. They soon discovered that he in fact, was a fan of Keane as well.

They just wrapped up a small tour of the U.S. which included a spectacular show on a beautiful night in Brooklyn, NY on the waterfront. Tom Chaplin teased, they’ll be back soon. Their live show is one of the best you’ll ever see.

Keane top UK album

Rock band Keane top UK album chart for fourth time
LONDON

Wed, May 5 2010LONDON (Reuters) - English band Keane secured a fourth consecutive number one album on Sunday with their latest release "Night Train" going straight in at the top of the charts, the Official Charts Company said.

Music

The group, whose worldwide album sales exceed 10 million, named the album after their preferred mode of transport during a 28-country tour for their last album, "Perfect Symmetry."

There were three other new entries in the top 10, with Lady Gaga's "The Remix" entering at number three and New York-based National going in at number five with "High Violet," while Foals' "Total Live Forever" was at number eight.

In the singles charts, London-based grime music collective Roll Deep's "Good Times" held on to the top spot for a third week running, making it only the second track to have spent as long at number one this year.

Jason Derulo's "Ridin' Solo" climbed to number two, from last week's twelfth place, while Romanian producer Edward Maya's dance track "Stereo Love," featuring Russian born Vika Jigulina was a new entry at number four.

Fyfe Dangerfield's cover of Billy Joel's "She's Always A Woman," which features in a television advert for high street department store John Lewis, was a new entry in the top ten, climbing seven places from last week to sit at number seven.

The cast of television show Glee went straight in at number nine with their version of Bonnie Tyler's 1983 hit "Total Eclipse of the Heart."
