Bio

Steve Leggett of All Music Guide referred to George Stephen Kelly thusly: “A fine slide guitarist, Kelly is also a careful and literate songwriter, somewhat in the John Hiatt vein... 
… an artist and writer to watch.” 
George's writing has also been compared with Van Morrison and Mark Knopfler.  

  • He has produced five albums:
  • 2004 - Lucid Intervals in  (under the name George Kelly)
  • 2020 - The Power, The Glory & The Monkey Time REDUX 2020
  • 2021 - Discount Cowboy
  • 2025 - Tin Ice
  • 2025 - Dimmer Glimmer 

George also contributed a track to the compilation record Fins, Chrome and the Open Road - A Tribute to the Cadillac, in 2005. The collection featured many blues luminaries, including Charlie Musselwhite, Maria Muldaur and one of his heroes Jimmy Hall.
