Keywest built their career on busking and have released a statement on the recent Busking By-laws enacted in Dublin which have banned amplifier use in Temple Bar
"We're really disappointed that busking on the streets of Dublin has been officially banned. It's where we started out and have been growing our fan base over the years. The silver lining is that our tour is selling really well and we've had a massive response from audiences throughout the UK and Europe. On top of that our national radio airplay has quadrupled in the last few months which is also really positive. We're busy working on the new album and plan to have another single released ahead of the tour"
-Andy Kav, lead singer.
