Keo

Keo are playing the McMenamins Mission Theater on Thursday, May 13, 2027. It's part of their North American tour, which runs from Philadelphia on April 28 to Los Angeles on May 20, with Portland falling right in the middle of that stretch. The show is all ages.

Keo are a London alt-rock band fronted by brothers Finn and Conor Keogh, with drummer Oli Spackman and guitarist Jimmy Lanwern. Their debut album, Put A Smile On For Me, came out through Island Records and entered the UK Official Albums Chart at number two, selling 23,500 units in its first week. That made them the first UK band in more than two years to clear 20,000 units with a debut. The record also debuted at number one on the UK Physical and UK Vinyl Albums Charts.

Finn Keogh self-produced the album alongside Lanwern, and most of it was recorded live. Keogh describes the record as an unfiltered examination of shame, accountability, memory and vulnerability. Since then, the band has moved from London's underground circuit to some of the country's biggest stages, supporting Wolf Alice and playing a Main Stage set at Reading & Leeds. They're currently on a sold-out UK headlining tour that includes their biggest show to date at the O2 Academy Brixton, and the Portland date is part of the North American leg that follows.

Doors open at 7 PM and the show starts at 8 PM. Tickets are $21.25.
