NEEVE from South Germany allows a name-dropping of a special kind. From a certain point of view, NEEVE are a bit like The National, nowhere near as toxic as Oasis. Similarly, entangled as Kings of Leon and twice as many as the Kinks. In fact, the 2018 formed band has a close family connection. They consist of two pairs of brothers who are also cousins: Felix Seyboth (vocals, drums) and Axel Seyboth (production, piano, guitar) and Marius Spohrer (guitar) and Philipp Spohrer (bass).
The band’s name NEEVE, should therefore also be understood as a common, fictitious family name.
Musically, NEEVE are closer to acts like The 1975, Giant Rooks, The Neighbourhood or even The Killers. They are not afraid of big pop moments, which never sound overloaded in NEEVE. As they are always grounded by the very emotional, open lyrics written by singer Felix Seyboth. For example, about his ADHD diagnosis, toxic masculinity, mental health struggles, but also about love and the relationship with his brother. The biggest surprise, however, might be that NEEVE produce their dazzling, international-sounding sound mostly on their own!
