About the Artist
Carly Keyes is a Los Angeles-based acoustic indie-pop singer-songwriter known for intimate, emotionally driven performances. Her stripped-back style and haunting vocal delivery draw listeners into deeply personal stories of love, loss, and longing.
Originally trained in filmmaking, Carly brings a cinematic sensitivity to her music—creating moments that feel both raw and quietly powerful. Whether reinterpreting familiar songs or sharing original work, her performances invite audiences into a space of reflection, connection, and feeling.
About See This Through…
See This Through... is a collection of songs written through longing, heartbreak, memory, hope, and the quiet attempt to keep moving forward after emotional loss.
Recorded in intimate stripped-back arrangements centered around voice and acoustic guitar, my album lives somewhere between late-night confession, journal entry, and living room performance — embracing imperfection, atmosphere, and emotional honesty over polish.
I wrote these songs across different chapters of my life, but together they became a reflection on connection: what lingers after it changes, what echoes long after someone is gone, and what parts of ourselves survive in the aftermath.
Thank you for listening.
