KAEYA
12:00PM – 12:30PM
KAEYA is a whirlwind of folk-singing, drag-wearing and heart-breaking artistry; based in
Leeds and working all around Yorkshire, their haunting blend of melancholy siren song and gut-punch narratives has captured all manner of audiences in their own colourful reverie.
His career began as a one-time support slot for a friend, tucked away in a dimly lit bar in
Hull, but quickly snowballed into something bigger, better and infinitesimally brighter. Four years later, he has enraptured intimate venues and festival stages alike in his cocoon of warm guitar and lilting melody, forever to be followed by the memory of the stories sung.
Epic tales of queerness, sickness and a profound exhaustion sit at the centre of KAEYA’s work. Every aspect of performance is tied together with a multi-hued drag-esque ribbon bow, and each spotlight to grace is another sparkling step towards a music industry changed by their delicate hands.
