Kay Iris is a singer, songwriter, guitarist and activist joined by accomplished instrumentalist and songwriter Matt Patmore. Their songs aim to inspire and empower.
Following their festival appearances at Lakefest 2024 and Big Feastival 2024, the Hastings-based musicians are pleased to announce their brand-new single ‘Stories We Tell’ which will be released on Friday 21st February 2025.
Discussing the track, Kay Iris explain: “‘Stories We Tell' explores the idea of being your own narrator and how that can inform and impact your own life and those around you. By following that inner narrative, you can thrive or fall victim to it. 'Stories We Tell' is a song aimed at empowering those who have become victims in their own tale and serves as a reminder that you have the power to be whoever you want in your own story.”
In addition, Kay Iris are performing on the Main Stage at Pub In The Park on 31st May / 12th July & 6th September in London as well as The Vegan Campout in London. More details will be announced soon so do keep an eye on the band’s socials.
