Glasgow alt-pop band neverfine have been generating some respectable interest since opening for LOWES at Glasgow’s SWG3 last June. The duo formed when multi-instrumentalist Craig Kelly sent vocalist Ashley Palkowski over 30 tracks he had written during lockdown and she nominated herself as the singer and lyricist.
Since bursting ono the scene, they have sold out Edinburgh’s Sneaky Pete’s. Other live milestones include a BBC Introducing session and a showcase at the Resonate industry event. In September neverfine’s debut EP, Do Everything, Feel Nothing, picked up widespread attention and made it onto various ‘acts to watch in 2024’ lists, including The Skinny, Radio’s Scotland’s Vic Galloway and Tenement TV.
On Friday they released their latest single, Colours, to coincide with a show as part of King Tut’s New Year’s Revolutions series. A lyric video is due to follow next week and a special live recording is out in mid-February. neverfine return to Sneaky Pete’s on 26 April and have already been confirmed for several festival slots due to be announced in the coming weeks.
