Irish pop artist KEHLI releases her brand new single ‘Believe It’ on September 20th through Rough Bones / Kobalt. A song about the wild abandon of young love, it’s the perfect pop jam to close out the summer to. Listen to ‘Believe It’ HERE
Speaking about ‘Believe It’ KEHI comments, “I recorded 'Believe it' last summer at SARM Studios and had the best time! I worked on it with Kid Eternal and Cameron Poole who did the last track and they were amazing to work with! It's a fun track that I hope people include in their prinks playlist as it gets me in the mood to go out! Love the upbeat tempo and energy of it!!!”
‘Believe It’ is the follow up to 19 year old Dubliner KEHLI’s debut single ‘One Last Kiss’ (feat Kid Eternal and Sam Ojo) which was an incredibly strong opening gambit from the rising Irish talent and saw her being tipped by the Official Charts as One To Watch and The Irish Times to name a few. UK Radio support came from BBC Radio 1, Kiss FM and various regional stations across the country. In her native Ireland radio support came by way of RTE, 98 FM and iRadio including daytime playlist with over 1 million impressions as well as being name track of the week for 3 consecutive weeks. ‘One Last Kiss’ reached top 5 positions in three key UK club charts including contemporary pop (#4), urban(#3) and club urban(#3).

Hailing from Dublin, 19-year old KEHLI is a vocalist and performer with a soulful, passionate and unique interpretation of contemporary pop music. She spent her early years at stage school, where from age 5, she studied music and professional dance including contemporary, hip-hop and ballet.
Her evolving passion for music and performance encouraged a 14 year old KEHLI to try her hands on a couple of TV music shows (usual suspects The Voice/X Factor etc.) which at such a tender age, provided invaluable experience and gained her a small cult online following.
Rehearsal footage of KEHLI singing Jorja Smith’s ‘Let me down’ made its way onto Instagram and was met by an extremely positive response with over 22K views in its first 48hrs. This encouraged KEHLI to continue to pursue her passion for music.
It was this experience that led to an intro to producer/songwriter MSRD - now New York/London based, who’s worked closely with KEHLI to help hone her sound. Other collaborators include the likes of London based Cameron Gower-Poole (Anne-Marie, Raye, RAY BLK) who has worked closely on KEHLI’s forthcoming debut, a soulful, edgy, pop infused EP also featuring mixes by Josh Gudwin (Julia Michaels, Post Malone, Halsey).
2019 is on track to be an exciting one for this young Irish talent and her music.
Praise for KEHLI
Officialcharts UK
“‘One Last Kiss’ wouldn't feel hugely out of place on Mabel's Ivy to Roses mixtape, Dua Lipa's self-titled album or Mahalia's Seasons EP - the dancehall feel makes it a fitting soundtrack for the summer months.”
Celeb Mix
“In addition to the excellent track, ‘One Last Kiss’ also shows off the rising Irish pop star’s fantastic vocals.”
When The Horn Blows
“[One Last Kiss] provides us with an energetic introduction to this exciting new talent.”
