Description
Kelly started out covering her favorite classic jazz, blues and R&B tunes in local Tampa bars and restaurants before deciding to take a break in 2004 to focus on writing and recording her debut CD, "Bettin' Woman". Little did she realize that it would take 2-1/2 years to finish it, but Hey! All good things come to those who wait, right?
"Bettin' Woman", comprised of eleven Bluesy, Funky and Soulful original songs, was recently released in 2006, and it's already becoming a popular favorite.
Kelly finds inspiration in all kinds of music and in all kinds of people and places. Her writing style varies, just as the sources of inspiration do. While some of the songs she has written are direct reflections of her own life experiences, she is also has been influenced by friends and strangers alike. "Sometimes a situation will just touch me in such a way that I just feel compelled to write about it," she says. "That's usually when the songs find me, and they just pour out." Many artists have been influential to Kelly over the years, but some of her favorites include Etta James, Aretha Franklin, Susan Tedeschi, Ray Charles, B. B. King, Nina Simone, and Billie Holiday.
Once Kelly made the decision to focus on writing the songs for her debut CD, "Bettin' Woman", she wrote all but two of the songs in little more than a week. Kevin Wilder assisted with the arrangements. With Mike Conway, owner of MCR Studios, as her producer, Kelly was able to have a remarkable roster of heavyweight blues and R&B performers backing her up on this album. She is so proud and thankful to have had the honor of working with Kevin Wilder, Richy Kicklighter, T.C. Carr, Dale Horton, Dean Germain, Theo Valentin, and Richard Jackson. Frankie J also performs on several songs, giving a memorable trombone solo on "There'll Be A Day".
