Singer/songwriter folk rock with ‘life on life’s terms’ themes such as a death in the family, a divorce, illness, and car accidents.
Bio / Background
Kelly’s new CD “Granite Falls,” brings the partnership of violinist Vicki Ault (fellow UW student) and himself to a new level. The album is spontaneous and consists of mostly first takes. Granite Falls was chosen because it is among the lyrics of “Adreanna.” Although Kelly added that it could have been any small town in the Northwest where there is Backyard Living and consequently acoustic style back porch gatherings.
The songs on Granite Falls were all written post Super Bowl 2006 and grasp a lot of what Kelly describes as ‘life on life’s terms’ themes such as a death in the family, a divorce, illness, and car accidents.
Kelly notes, “It’s crazy that out of such a downer year I could record, produce and complete a new CD. It proves the theory that everything happens for a reason. We’ll see…”
Granite Falls is available for download at the iTunes website or can be purchased online at cdbaby.

Before producing the album, Kelly completed a certificate program in Songwriting at the University of Washington in 2005 thanks to QTTP Education Assistance. While attending the program, he got to perform at the Experienced Music Project (EMP) with the likes of Sean Nelson (Harvey Danger, Carrie Akre (Sweetness, Hammerbox) and John Auer (Posies). The final assignment to complete his certificate was a class album. The Experience Songwriting Project CD included one of his own compositions “Highway 2U” which featured other UW certificate participants Vicki Ault, Traci Craft and John Auer (Posies) on vocals.
