New Music: The Kellows: Sheffield Indie-Rockers Debut with Soulful "Do You Want Me To?

The Kellows are a dynamic and profoundly creative four-piece indie-rock band from Sheffield, UK. Though relatively new, forming with members around 17 years old, they are already demonstrating impressive songwriting, composing, arranging, and production skills.

Their sound offers a modern take on alternative rock music, subtly infused with indie rock and even some post-punk elements. Listeners might also detect a touch of nostalgia, with vital sonic ingredients borrowed from the late 90s and early 00s, spicing things up. The band constructs an ear-appealing ambiance with generous servings of distortion, warm-sounding low-ends, and heavy beats. A standout feature is the persuasive and soulful lead vocal performance, which is melodic and harmonious, perfectly pairing with the raw, abrasive, and gritty guitar work. The rhythm and lead guitars engage in perfectly assembled interplays, while the bass guitar acts as a counterweight, offering warmth and depth. The drumming provides a comprehensive collection of well-accentuated, flawlessly performed rhythmic patterns, fills, and percussive acrobatics. The Kellows have already garnered industry attention with a successful appearance at SXSW London.

"Do You Want Me To?" is the highly anticipated debut single from The Kellows, officially released on July 18, 2025. A music video for the single also premiered on the same day.

Lyrically, "Do You Want Me To?" explores a variety of sentiments, moods, situations, and circumstances, making it a highly relatable composition designed to immediately resonate with a broad audience. Despite being their debut piece of work, The Kellows instantly showcase a lyrical depth rarely heard among newer bands. They've poured their heart and soul into this track, resulting in a fine piece of sonic artistry that delves into various human experiences and emotions.
