Comparisons to Wunderhorse abound in early coverage of the band, with singer Finn Keogh’s heartfelt delivery and the raw, grunge-flecked sound of many of their songs making the comparison almost inevitable. There are worse acts to be lumped in with than a breakout star who easily sold out Alexandra Palace on his last UK tour, but to cast Keo as just a copycat band is unfair in the extreme. Sure, the angsty snarl of ‘Thorn’ leans that way, but ‘Best I Can Do’. aired for the first time at their Electric Ballroom show, is inimitably their own and points to a band who are more than comfortable in their own lane.
