Kee Avil

Montreal producer Kee Avil combines guitar, voice, and electronic production into deconstructed songs informed by a distinctive blend of avant-pop, glitch, post-industrial and experimental folk sensibilities. Her latest album Spine was released on Constellation in May 2024 as Bandcamp Album of the Day, garnering widespread critical accolades. The Line of Best Fit declared ‘Spine affirms Kee Avil’s status of an aesthetics and production virtuoso comparable to Jlin or SOPHIE – producing a dripping, cavernous version of glitch slammed with manipulations.’ while Uncut described it as ‘Deeply intimate and intensely unsettling… like an alien lifeform flexing its mandibles.’ Spine was featured in The Wire, stating ‘Kee Avil's skeletal grooves hit with an urgent intimacy’ and the Quietus applauded its restrained intensity ‘Spine simmers, sashaying close to eruption. Sounds worm around like squeezed gel.’
