What's Next?! AN UPDATE

Hey everybody!

So there is a LOT to catch up on!

Thank you for stopping by to read this update - I really appreciate it. I also understand that we don't make it exceptionally easy to follow the band at times, so we appreciate your dedication. We're good at writing songs and rocking out ... We're not always good at keeping in touch.

So, at some point in 2009, I let you all know that the musicians in Hello Kelly all felt led to quit the band and move onto other things. I also told you that I wasn't going anywhere ... and here we are, Hello Kelly lives on. There have been rumours of Hello Kelly breaking up but the technical answer for those rumours is a solid NO.

In March, we toured with ToTell on the INTENSITY IN 10 CITIES TOUR and it was a huge success. Please don't forget to visit http://intensityintencities.ca to download a bunch of free new music - and tell all your friends about it too. It's our gift to you!

On the tour, I was joined on stage by 3 of my new best friends. Travis Wilbourn, from Atlanta, Georgia on Lead Guitar. Ben Mahaffey, from Eerie, Pennsylvania, on Drums. And George Wong from Calgary, Alberta, on Bass. Whether or not these guys wind up sticking around remains to be seen ... But we all had a blast and things are looking good. We'll announce that officially soon one way or the other.

On the tour, we played a BUNCH of new material - and we were so happy that you all responded so positively. Gosh. The new song BETTER NOW TOGETHER is on our MySpace (http://myspace.com/hellokelly) and you need to go listen to it. We'll be releasing more new songs as soon as we can - and we'll be announcing a release date for our new record EASY FOR YOU TO SAY as soon as we know what it is.

The next step for Hello Kelly? Well, we're going to be working on some of the more boring stuff. We want to build a good team around Hello Kelly to help us reach more people. We don't want to sell out, but we DO want to team up with some good friends. We'll let you know how that goes.

We'll be making more tour announcements in the next couple weeks too - so pretty much just keep your eyes peeled, OK?

Thank you SO much for sticking with us - and I can't wait for you to hear the new songs!
