The Quixotics Release Single ‘Keeping Warm’

September 4, 2026 Marshall Cullen

Another strange place, another strange lover. But it’s getting harder to keep going and colder the further you go. Is it too late to turn back? Is that warm voice you hear from the past still there for you if you do? The QuiXotics singers Michael and Hannah tease out these questions in their tender new countrified duet. ‘Keeping Warm’ is The Quixotic’s fifth single and out on September 4th in anticipation of the soon to be released album ‘Desdemona’.

‘There’s been so many times I knew my stubborn mind was gonna keep me cold’.

‘Don’t know how many times instead I turn and smile, a smile to keep you warm, keep you warm.’

The QuiXotics are a band dedicated to enthralling song writing, recording and live performance. Impossible to pigeonhole, they deliver a diverse range of dynamic sounds that traverse terrain from driving Indi rock n roll with catchy pop overtures and bluesy guitar riffing always complemented by engaging lyrics.

Formerly a three piece featuring lead singer Michael Gabriel on guitar with his son Gabe Francas on drums together with Hannah Smillie on bass and magical harmonies, The QuiXotics have now added Aaron Powell on second guitar providing another layer to emphasise the guitar driven nature
of The QuiXotic sound full of riffs and surprising melodic invention.
