The summer saw Kezia play some of the UK’s top country festivals including Buckle & Boots, FSA and Millport. She was named as one of the Radio 2 BBC Introducing artists and subsequently performed at The Long Road. Her music has gone on to be played on The Bob Harris Country Music Show. The new EP Dead Ends & Detours, a compilation of 6 songs, is now available to download, buy and stream from all major online music platforms.
Kezia’s success shows no sign of slowing down, being nominated for 5 awards (including Album of the Year) at 2019’s British Country Music Awards, making her the most nominated artist. Kezia beat the competition to take the top spot as Number One Female Country Artist in the UK taking home the award for Best Female!
