URBAN VAULT UK
Urban Vault caught up with London based vocalist Hatty Keane to ask her some questions about her forthcoming single JEALOUS, and more…
Hatty Keane started performing around the UK at 16 years old, quickly starting to generate label interest and eventually signing to independent music company BGM. Quickly going on to tour with the likes of Wretch 32, Rudimental, Ellie Goulding, Wiley and Ed Sheeran, it underlined the hype and reputation of a young singer being touted as a major new emerging star. Hatty, however, felt that her sound needed refinement and identity. Retreating to studios across Sweden to work with producers there, Hatty shaped and honed her music further, merging edgy pop influences with retro orchestras.
