After a three-year glam-rock slumber, NYC’s most dazzling genre-defiers Tony & The Kiki are storming back onto the scene in full technicolor with their electrifying new single, ‘Keep Shinin’ On.’ The track marks a triumphant return for the band and offers a glitter-soaked teaser of what’s to come in their highly anticipated 2025 EP.
Dripping in groove, melody, and unapologetic flair, ‘Keep Shinin’ On’ is more than a song—it’s a call to arms for the fabulous, the fearless, and the fed-up. Blending the swagger of classic rock with disco decadence and modern pop sheen, the track is a bedazzled anthem of empowerment, made to blast while beating your face, slipping into sequins, or just needing that cosmic kick to strut through the chaos of everyday life.
“This one’s for all the girlies, gays, and theys stuck doom-scrolling and feeling helpless,” says lead singer and glam shaman Anthony Alfaro [They/Them]. “It’s an alarm bell to rise up and SHINE. Forget what your family, classmates, or society think. Follow your inner knowing and don’t dim your light for no bitch ever! This track is pure ‘you go girl!’ energy in musical form.”
Formed in 2021 after a decade-long friendship, Tony & The Kiki emerged as a glam-rock wonder, conjuring a sound as magnetic as it is magical. Drawing from legends like Blondie, Queen, and Scissor Sisters, the band’s bold fusion of ‘Nostalgia and Now’ has already captured ears and hearts around the world, racking up over 100K streams. Their spellbinding performances and genre-fluid identity position them as one of NYC’s most arena-ready, gender-expanding, glitter-laced acts.
With ‘Keep Shinin’ On’, Tony & The Kiki aren’t just back—they’re back louder, prouder, and shinier than ever. ‘Keep Shinin’ On’ is a glittering anthem that exudes empowerment and unapologetic flair.
