"In Pieces" ("an interesting Asian flavour with a Blur bent") reached number 1 in the ILR airplay chart (an Australian-based provider of network radio programmes) - this track (along with the original bedroom demo version of "She's Got It All") is included on the Whimsical Records 2007 compilation "ELEVATE - 21 pop and indie gems from the underground".Keith's "middle of the road but weird pop songs" were first spotted by ex-Tenpole Tudor member, Richard Coppen. There followed a slot on the Streamline Records (now Matchbox Recordings) compilation CD "Aural Feast", plus numerous London gigs (including venues such as the Bull & Gate, the Spice of Life, Leonards, the Betsey Trotwood and various lounges). Various BLD songs have reached the finals of the UK Songwriting Contest, including the piano ballad "Touch Of Your Kiss".Recent reviews of the single have thrown numerous names into the melting pot (such as Ian Dury, Blur, Ray Davies, Babybird, Kevin Coyne, John Shuttleworth, Belle and Sebastian, Paul McCartney, Lightning Seeds) - it's essentially catchy English indie pop in a gentle, quirky, reflective style.
