“..The final result is more Americana soul than New Orleans funk, steeped in the Memphis gospel vocals, RB horns and gurgling B3 organ of Al Green, Hi Records and Willie Mitchell, but his adopted hometown’s spirit can’t be denied..”
Co-produced by Kelly with Robert Mercurio of long-running New Orleans band Galactic (now owner of the famed Tipitina’s venue), Here’s the Thing offers an introduction to a musician who put in the work and waited until the time was right to launch his solo career after establishing his reputation for more than a decade with local group Gravy.
Kelly’s connections forged during two decades in New Orleans resulted in a dizzying array of talented musicians who participated in the project, including bassist Kevin Scott [Govt Mule, Jimmy Herring Band], drummer/multi-instrumentalist Isaac Eady [the Tedeschi-Trucks Band], drummer Stanton Moore and bassist/producer Robert Mercurio [both of Galactic], singer/vocal producer Gabrielle Cavassa [Joshua Redman], lead guitarist Joe Pizzolato [Kelly Price, Hans Williams], saxophonist/clarinetist Nick Ellman [Naughty Professor, Maroon 5], composer/multi-instrumentalist Kelly Pratt [Arcade Fire, St. Vincent, David Byrne, Father John Misty] and so many more..
Finding a new lease on life following a near-fatal accident several years ago, Kelly has returned to touring, honing the new material for live performances.
