Formed in 1996, in Coral Springs, FL, Keepsake joined together the efforts of a five-piece crew, lead by Shane Halpern (vocals, guitars) and aided by Rob Yapkowitz (guitar), Jesse Kirz (drums), Paul Geller (guitar), and Trevor Short (bass). Inspired by the sound of bands like Green Day or Weezer, the quintet endured by offering its own vision of alternative pop/rock, adding to it reminiscences of styles like punk and emo. Following a series of lineup changes, the squad finally stabilized to record what would be their debut recording. The Things I Would Say, delivered by Eulogy Records in the beginning of 1998, finally perpetuated the group's legendary and energizing tunes on record.
