Hailing from different parts of Scotland—Duncan from suburban Edinburgh and Keshav from South Glasgow—the duo's rich musical backgrounds and experience in various projects help shape their sound. They formed the band whilst waiting in the line at Dalston Superstore London, having met in the city on the circuit as session musicians.
Despite this being their first official release, they generated significant interest earlier this year with a demo titled "Television," which unexpectedly racked up over 60,000 streams on Soundcloud due to a mix-up. Kesh mistakenly sent a link to Duncan without setting private and the music instantly attracted attention.
Their first official single, "Animated Love", launches today 6th November 2024 and is designed to inspire listeners to embrace life’s highs and lows while striving for their best selves. The track combines feel-good indie with dancefloor ready energy.
The name KuleeAngee derives from ‘Kalyan Ji’ a distant relative in Kesh’s family from India. "Kalyan," meaning "new dawn" in Sanskrit, reflects the duo's ethos of breaking down barriers of language, race, and sexuality, and living fully in the present.
Already making a mark in the Glasgow music scene, KuleeAngee recently performed at the Tenement Trail in Barrowlands 2, for BBC Introducing and supported Porij at King Tut's. They are gearing up for a UK tour with headline shows in Edinburgh and Glasgow this December, with more music and performances on the horizon for early 2025.
