Songwriter, singer, guitarist and storyteller are the words that truly describe Russ Kelley. At this point in his career, Russ only does what interests him most. After years working as a full time professional musician (during which he toured all over Canada and the USA) and another number of years working in arts funding (mostly with the Canada Council for the Arts), he has spent the past few years back on stage, during which he has produced two CDs of original, toured all over Canada, and played festivals, music rooms, and house concerts. Last year (2017) he produced a small concert series in Ottawa, played a number of gigs, and began a unique recording project with four other colleagues that has occupied much of his time this year. There is much more to come about this project soon!

Please check out the buttons at the top of this page for more background information and streaming of his last cd “In Plain Sight” . This site has been experiencing difficulties and has not been fully updated in awhile.

My Home Routes “Cherry Bomb Circuit” tour begins on the 16th of October. I will be playing house concerts in Prince George (Oct 16), Mackenzie (Oct 17), Hudson’s Hope (Oct 18), Dawson Creek (Oct 21), Prince George (Oct 22), Fraser Lake (Oct 23), Houston (Oct 24), Smithers (Oct 25), Hazelton (Oct 27), Terrace (Oct 28) and Prince Rupert (Oct 29). House Concerts are my favourite thing to do. I absolutely love the intimacy and the connection with house concert goers who are true lovers of music. If you are in any of these places and would like to catch a show but do not know the hosts, you can call Selena from Home Routes at 1-866-925-6889 ext. 201

I will have both of my CDs with me for sale and as usual at least a couple of new tunes. You can also check out my other site at http://www.reverbnation.com/russellkelley. There are a couple of songs from both CDs streaming there, as well as more bio material and record reviews.

Looking forward to seeing you at one of shows somewhere. RK
