In Episode 183, we sat down with Northeast pop “punk band with horns” Keep Flying just before they performed at the second annual Happy Skalidays Music Fest at Clarky’s Billiards in Scranton. We talked about the origins of the band in New York in 2016 and the evolution of their lineup over the years, how independent bands navigate the music business and tour the country, what they enjoy about NEPA and returning to the area, recording EPs over full-length albums, the meaning behind each song on their new EP “Daylight,” ska and punk music, how their nerdy interests have inspired their merch, and more.
