Kelly’s first discovered talent was as a mime, but don’t hold that against her, she was only 7!  From that time on she developed her stage presence doing child beauty pageants.  Discovering that she could carry a tune, Kelly began singing and hasn’t stopped since even when her grandmother hid her favorite Go Go’s tape when she was in 5th grade.  That little intervention led her to love for traditional songs. 

Kelly fell in love with Irish music in her last semester in college.  She eventually joined the band Shenanigans and toured across the Midwest performing in pubs and playing for festivals.  During that time, her love and enjoyment of the Irish culture grew and she found offered her services to the Brookside and Kansas City Irish Festivals as an agent booking groups.

Kelly offers her heart and soul when she sings.  She says ‘…. it’s like a form of meditation!’  Her passion for the stories in the songs comes across when she shares her stellar singing with her audience.
