Today, Portland’s punk rock outfit KEDDIES RESORT is excited to unleash their new single "Fireworks," taken from their upcoming album, 'American Spirit,' out on July 4th via Sweatband Records. Raucous, unfiltered, and bursting with raw energy, “Fireworks” finds KEDDIES RESORT in full ignition mode.
The music video for "Fireworks" is premiering with Punk News
Leaning into their scrappy DIY roots, the band blends jagged punk rhythms with razor-sharp power pop sensibilities, delivering a track that crackles with urgency. Fueled by overdriven guitars and an acerbic vocal bite, “Fireworks” erupts as both a fiery personal outburst and a sardonic snapshot of modern chaos — a noisy, hook-laced detonation set against the backdrop of their signature lo-fi grit.
Keddie Smith comments on the new single:
"This song sums up the concept character's narcissistic view of himself and the world around him. It marks a celebration and turning point in the story, a sick daydream coming to life."

KEDDIES RESORT is a three-piece explosion with a catalogue consisting of 4 EPs and 4 LPs titled 'Makita', 'KYST', 'A Killer Goodbye,' and most recently, 'American Spirit.'
Since their first show on April 2nd of 2022, they’ve quickly climbed the ranks in the Portland music scene, gaining popularity and solidifying a strong fan base. This power trio punches above its weight, with a striking mix of Alt-rock, punk, and harmonic pop sensibilities.
Their stage antics have gained the band major notoriety in the all-ages scene, landing them the title “Portland's most infamous band.” When they’re not inducing indoor crowd tornadoes, you can find them playing generator shows under bridges and in the basements and garages that have served as the backbone of underground youth culture in Portland for years.
Their upcoming album, 'American Spirit,' delivers sweet, fuzzed-out power pop packed with infectious hooks and raw energy. KEDDIES RESORT captures the spirit of Portland’s youth and counter culture with a sound as vibrant and unfiltered as it is unforgettable — a blast of pure DIY exhilaration on wax.
