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!

Comic Time! Eps. 005 & 006
Being on the road in a band is hard sometimes; especially when it comes to food. It seems like meal time is always "feast or famine," because sometimes there's lots of food but a lot of the time there's hardly any. Luckily, people tend to understand this and help out whenever possible.
The first comic is about having breakfast at Francy's dad's house: a real meal or waffles and sausage and bacon.. Mmmm... My mouth is watering just thinking about it.
The second comic is about when we're fending for ourselves and trying to cook meals for the whole band. Quick and cheap is usually the order of the day so you find shortcuts. Our favorite shortcut is Red Robin seasoning, which we sprinkle liberally on everything, usually with pretty good results! Enjoy the comics!

Episode 005: Breakfast @ Frank's House

New Record's title: EASY FOR YOU TO SAY
NEW RECORD'S TITLE: "Easy for You to Say"
The new Hello Kelly record is going to be called "Easy for You to Say".
I know it sounds a little weird - let me explain: None of these songs were easy to write – I practically smeared the secrets of my heart all across the pages. But I’m glad I did it. These songs are real & authentic.
This record is poised to be harder, faster & more sincere, and I'm really excited for you guys to hear it. I write about things that I never thought I would write about ... which brings me to my next point ...
The other reason I chose 'Easy for You to Say' is because, for the first time, I'm really comfortable talking and singing about the stutter that I struggle with. I want you guys to know that you can overcome whatever hurdles are holding you back in your own lives - just like I'm fighting daily against mine. And that's the biggest reason why I'm so excited about sharing this new record with you!
To find out more about the new Hello Kelly record, direction & sound, check out the BAND section at HELLOKELLYONLINE.COM and read the new bio.
I can't wait to share some new music with you!
By the way ... I'll be posting the rest of the INTENSITY tour dates soon ... AND giving you a sneak peek at some brand new HELLO KELLY shirts!
