About the artist

As Kee Avil, songwriter Vicky Mettler delicately threads guitar, piano, and electroacoustics to craft music that is intensely intimate and organic. Having played guitar in a variety of avant-garde and improvisational groups, she began exploring composition and songwriting with her self-titled Kee Avil EP, which was released by Black Bough Records in 2018. Her sounds hang together like organs in a body, tightly wound and uncomfortably amorphous, each instrument at least partially digested, every tension unplaceable.
