Beautifully bare and intimately powerful, indie-folk artist Naomi Keyte shapes her delicately spun stories into transformative musical experiences that have been captivating audiences for almost a decade.
With a cache of releases and accolades attesting to her prominence in the indie-folk/pop sphere, the Adelaide singer-songwriter is returning with her first release since dropping stunning track ‘Travelling Woman’ in 2020, announcing ‘Greenhill’ as the first single from her forthcoming sophomore LP.
Immediately wrapping us in Keyte’s unique and ageless sound, ‘Greenhill’ opens with the gentle strum of the guitar as raw, goosebump-inducing vocal tones paint vivid pictures. Tracking the song through its acoustic journey, glorious moments of open piano chords and burgeoning percussion are exposed as three interlocking guitars underpin the track. Eventually, another ruminative chorus delivers the rich pairing of Ben Talbot-Dunn’s backing vocals with Keyte’s graceful voice, offering our own first-hand glimpse into some of life’s simple pleasures.

Detailing Keyte’s experiences in lockdown, ‘Greenhill’ is a coming of age song reflecting on the people, possessions and moments that make a home special, and the simple things that help us through the difficult times, as she explains: “Written about life in lockdown, ‘Greenhill’ details life in a sharehouse and honours the small things that make cohabitation meaningful. A love song to a house and its inhabitants, ‘Greenhill’ is a dedication to the simple things that make up a home.”
Keyte’s previous releases have seen support from Tone Deaf, theMusic, AU Review, Triple J, Triple J Unearthed, the AMRAP Regional Charts and more, with her debut album ‘Melaleuca’ earning Keyt
With a highly-anticipated sophomore album on the way, Naomi Keyte’s new single ‘Greenhill’ is out everywhere on October 8.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
