Keelan Mak - 'Brave Face'

Naarm/Melbourne based artist Keelan Mak delivers an exceptional electronic/pop gem that delves deep into a journey after the end of a relationship titled ‘Brave Face’, the title track of Keelan’s upcoming EP due for release in October that provides a contrasting and uplifting soundscape to an emotional period of his life.

‘Brave Face’ hits you with a commanding presence immediately as we begin the track, with the thumping percussion and booming bass line setting the powerful nature in tact all while Keelan Mak‘s vocals soar majestically across the top of the mix with its appealing yet calming manner. ‘Brave Face’ reaches it climax in the explosion of sound in the chorus, whereby Mak’s vocals meet the power on display in the instrumentation through those crystal-clear harmonies that heighten the piece to incredible heights.

“I wrote Brave Face sitting alone in the apartment that I lived in with my ex. He had left a few days before and it put me in a pretty rough place. Brave Face was an ode to the role I played for months” – Keelan Mak
