Available in:
Civil Twilight is the four-piece rock band from Cape Town, South Africa consisting of Andrew McKeller(guitar, vocals), Steven McKeller(vocals, bass guitar, keyboards), Richard Wouters(drums, percussion) and Kevin Dailey(keyboards). They are signed to Wind-up Records, and have released two studio albums—their self-titled debut album, Civil Twilight, and Holy Weather.
Originally hailing from Cape Town, South Africa, Civil Twilight is a power quartet that draws parallels with Pilot Speed and is especially known for their similar sound to early U2, Muse, Jeff Buckley, and Radiohead. Their music has been described as having impassioned vocals and stirring, alt-rock songcraft. Brothers Andrew and Steven McKellar were raised in a musical household, having explored their father’s jazz collection at a young age while listening to their classically trained mother play piano. In November 1996, Andrew launched a teenaged band with help from his high school classmate, guitarist Richard Wouters. The two scheduled an inaugural rehearsal for the following month; in the interim, Andrew discovered that his younger brother, Steven, could sing and write songs. The three musicians subsequently banded together, with Steven agreeing to master the bass and Wouters giving up the guitar (which Andrew also played) to learn drums.
