Another Folk Singer (Just what you need!)

Terry Kelly is a former New York area folk singer and songwriter/journalist and artist currently living in exile (somewhere west of 95) in central Florida. In 2001 he self-released his debut 'Across America' album, which has received airplay on folk and acoustic/roots radio programs in North America and Europe. His music has been featured along with artists like Ralph McTell, Kate Rusby, Richard Thompson, Billy Bragg, Nanci Griffith, and Bob Dylan on the BBC Radio 2, in the U.K.

Fred Migliore, the host of public radio's nationally syndicated "FM Odyssey" program says: "Terry’s a great songwriter and great guitarist. He’s performed live on our program several times now and you will be hearing much more of his music on this show in the future!"

You can find him performing his original mix of sixties and seventies "Greenwich Village" style and very eclectic, intelligent, and humorous modern folk music at coffeehouses, book stores, public radio stations, and festivals from Florida to New York.

"Terry Kelly is a great performer. He’s a real crowd pleaser!" According to Melanie Velacek, Florida Today (Newspaper) in Melbourne. "His song about living a former life as a dog, "When I was a Dog (The Dog Song)" has the audience barking, laughing, and cheering, all at the same time!"

He is currently in the studio recording several new songs and performing solo around Central Florida and with his good friend Mike Runion as the Bastards at acoustic/folk and roots venues (there are one or two). Listen for new music from Terry and Mike on the best public radio programs that feature independent singer-songwriters and contemporary folk/acoustic rock and roots artists.

"Great Folk! My cat even likes it!" –Genevieve Tudor, "Sunday Folk," BBC Radio 2, U.K.

Terry opens a very special Annie Humphrey concert!


Saturday, June the 8th, 2002, Terry had the great honor to open for one of America's most important and talented new singer-songwriters, when Annie Humphrey made a surprise visit to the central Florida area, where she performed a very special concert for nationally syndicated broadcast on National Public Radio's "FM Odyssey" program, hosted by Fred Migliore.

Performing a great new song called "Edge of America" and several "classics" from her debut "The Heron Smiled" album, Annie was, quite simply, brilliant. "She is an amazing artist and a wonderful human being" says Migliore, who has featured Ms. Humphrey on his program for the past two years. "She is probably the most popular performer we've ever had on the show and tonight's concert will only add to her growing reputation. She is remarkable" added Migliore.

Jackson Browne and David Crosby have also been impressed by Annie. A featured artist at Browne's "Verde Valley School Music Festival" in Sedona, AZ, she has made fans of fellow artists from Browne and Crosby to Bruce Cockburn and the Indigo Girls. And, thanks to her exposure on radio programs like "FM Odyssey" her message of hope and a better life for Native Americans is being heard loud and clear by intelligent listeners eager for music with lyrics of substance, truth, and deeper meaning for a change.

She is currently working on a new album and, if her new song "Edge of America" is any indication, Annie Humphrey is on the edge of a brilliant and very important music career. More importantly, her songs could help to change the world and it's definitely a world that needs to change!

-Peace-
