Interview: Kaylene Widdoes & Lauren Seveney of Keys & Corridors

Keys & Corridors are an alternative rock band from Akron, Ohio. With the release of their debut EP, Thieves, just around the corner, Legendary Kids Press was able to speak with vocalist Kaylene Widdoes and guitarist Lauren Seveney about the release, the band’s touring schedule and their decision to pursue music for a living.

How would you describe your sound to those who have never listened to Keys & Corridors before?

We get a lot of comparisons to other female-led alt bands, like Paramore and Flyleaf. Whenever we try to describe our sound, we use them as examples. But I think we strive to put a spin on the genre as well. Every band member has come from different musical backgrounds and has played different genres of music, which provides a unique sound to the band as a whole. I also like to tell people that we try to be very deliberate with our lyrics, so expect a nice alternative rock sound with some heart in it!

What made you decide to pursue music for a living?

Lauren Seveney: I have used poetry and songwriting as a release for a long time now. Growing up, it was really difficult for me to express what I was feeling, especially within difficult situations like divorces, not having friends at school, etc. So when I felt like no one was listening to me, I wrote down my pain and tried to create something beautiful from it. It became a passion. So pursuing a way to write and be creative has always been important to me.

As far as pursuing music, I’ve just never felt like I was good at anything else. Nothing feels more natural to me than writing a song, and I feel really called to help kids who were broken like me. To me, that’s worth fighting for.

Kaylene Widdoes: I think I would say I can’t imagine doing anything else. Sitting in an office for the next 30 years doesn’t sound nearly as fun as touring the country and playing shows every night. We love what we do and there’s passion in every note we play. To be able to do what I love and play music that we’ve written is amazing.
