 About Keane Keane's piano-driven pop/rock is created by vocalist Tom Chaplin, drummer Richard Hughes, and pianist Tim Rice-Oxley, three childhood friends from the small town of Battle in East Sussex, England. Formed in 1997, the group started out as a college-aged cover band. Guitarist Dominic Scott was also part of this early incarnation, having previously played cover songs with Hughes and Rice-Oxley in a band named the Lotus Eaters. Keane toured the East Sussex circuit for several years while internalizing the epic sounds of their set list, which included songs by Oasis, U2, and the Beatles. The quartet began performing original material in 1998, although Chaplin left for Edinburgh University shortly thereafter to study art history. The move proved to be brief, as he returned to London in 1999 and doubled his efforts with Keane. Buoyed by Chaplin's tenor vocals and Rice-Oxley's inventive keyboard effects, the group made its studio debut in 2000 with a self-released single, "Call Me What You Like." Wolf at the Door followed one year later, but the band still struggled to find its momentum as Scott left the lineup in July, leaving the band without a guitarist. Keane continued performing as a trio and happened upon their big break in December 2002, when Fierce Panda Records representative Simon Williams (who had helped discover Coldplay several years prior) was summoned by a friend to attend a Keane gig in London. Williams was impressed with the band's performance and offered to issue Keane's next single, Everybody's Changing, on the spot. The limited-edition release became a success on U.K. radio and attracted attention from major record labels, several of whom began to swarm around the group. Keane signed with Island Records in 2003 and released This Is the Last Time, the band's final single for the Fierce Panda label, before the year was up. They made their major-label debut one year later with Hopes and Fears, which hit the top of the U.K. album charts during its first week of release and beat out Morrissey's You Are the Quarry. The ballad "Somewhere Only We Know" became a hit on both sides of the Atlantic, and Keane received two Brit Awards (for Best Breakthrough Act and Best Album 2005) while earning a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist. The album went on to become the second highest-selling record of the year in the U.K., barely losing out to the Scissor Sisters' debut. Keane opened several shows during U2's 2005 tour in support of their debut, which was followed several months later by the Live Recordings 2004 EP. When it came time to return to the recording studio, the band once again enlisted producer Andy Green and fashioned a darker album titled Under the Iron Sea. Arriving in 2006, it debuted at number four on the Billboard Top 200, topped the U.K. charts, and spun off the band's most successful single to date with Is It Any Wonder? Keane chose to pursue a different agenda for their next project, however, returning in 2008 with a slightly retooled sound -- including the presence of electric guitar -- and a new album, Perfect Symmetry. Two years later, they changed directions yet again with the release of Night Train, an eight-song EP featuring collaborations with the Somali rapper K'NAAN. Released in 2012, Strangeland, the full-length follow-up to Perfect Symmetry, married that albums use of guitars and über-pop sensibility with the anthemic, piano-led sound prevalent on the bands first two albums, particularly Under the Iron Sea. ~ Andrew Leahey Albums List: Keane - Hopes and Fears Keane - Hopes and Fears (Deluxe Edition) Keane - iTunes Festival London 2010 Keane - Keane Live from London Keane - Perfect Symmetry Keane - Perfect Symmetry (Deluxe Edition) Keane - Strangeland (Deluxe Version) (Mastered) Keane - Strangeland (Deluxe Version) (Mastered) (US Version) Keane - The Best of Keane (Deluxe) (Mastered) Keane - Under the Iron Sea Night Train (iTunes + LP) EPs & Singles List: Keane - Bend & Break - Single Keane - Call Me What You Like - Single Keane - Crystal Ball - EP Keane - Crystal Ball - Single Keane - Crystal Ball - Single (UK Version) Keane - Crystal Ball (Live from Germany) - EP Keane - Disconnected - Single (UK Version) Keane - Everybody's Changing - EP Keane - Everybody's Changing (Fierce Panda) - Single Keane - Is It Any Wonder - EP Keane - Is It Any Wonder (International 2 Track) - Single Keane - Keane (Live) - EP Keane - Live at Brixton Academy - EP Keane - Live at ColumbiaFritz - EP Keane - Live Recordings 2004 - EP Keane - Nothing In My Way - EP Keane - Somewhere Only We Know - EP Keane - Sovereign Light Café - Single Keane - The Night Sky - EP Keane - This Is The Last Time (Fierce Panda) - Single Keane - Try Again - EP Keane - Wolf At The Door - Single Singles List: DJ Shadow vs. Keane - We Might As Well Be Strangers - Single Keane - A Bad Dream - Single Keane - Atlantic - Single Keane - Bedshaped - Single Keane - Bee's Knees - What I Need - Single Keane - Crystal Ball (Acoustic Version) - Single Keane - Crystal Ball (Tall Paul Remix) - Single Keane - Disconnected - Single Keane - Everybody's Changing - Single Keane - Higher Than the Sun - Single Keane - Into the Light (demo version) - Single Keane - Is It Any Wonder - Single Keane - Is It Any Wonder (Acoustic) - Single Keane - Is It Any Wonder (Live @ ULU) - Single Keane - Is It Any Wonder (Tall Paul & Dave Parkinson Edit) - Single Keane - Nothing In My Way - Single Keane - Nothing In My Way (Live) - Single Keane - On a Day Like Today - Single Keane - Perfect Symmetry - Single Keane - Silenced By the Night - Single Keane - Silenced By the Night (Alesso Remix) - Single Keane - Somewhere Only We Know - Single Keane - Sovereign Light Café - Single (Mastered) Keane - Sovereign Light Café (Afrojack vs. Keane) [Afrojack Remix] - Single Keane - Spiralling - Single Keane - Tear Up This Town (From A Monster Calls) - Single Keane - The Lovers Are Losing - Single Keane - The Way You Want It - Single Keane - This Is The Last Time - Single Keane - Try Again - Single Keane & Basto! - Bend & Break (Basto vs. Keane) [Basto Remix] - Single Keane & K'naan - Stop for a Minute - Single https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/keane/1187178
