Greek outfit Keep Shelly In Athens have debuted new heart-filling power ballad "Seattle".
"Seattle" follows lead single "Leave In Silence" in previewing KSIA's follow up to 2015's Now I'm Ready.
Award-winning Australian poet/novelist Jessica Bell takes over lead vocal duties for this outing, and she shows off her skills with aplomb on the new cut, belting big emotions over a melancholic brew of '80s pop synths and rickety percussion. "Seattle" is a grand statement from the duo with a chorus ready to take on all comers.
Tracklist:
- Leave In Silence
- Marionette
- Game Over (Daniel's Scene)
- Seattle
- Philokalia
- We Want More
- Dark Light
- Believe
Philokalia is out via their own label Athenian Aura on 29 September.
