Kellie Lee is Awesome


By Jordan Jeffus, Austin, Texas

Alright party people, I’m back with an artist that I want everyone to check out. Her name is Kellie Lee and she is awesome. I’m not jus’ sayin’ that because she’s my cousin, either…

Kellie isn’t your stereotypical artist. In 2006, she left Texas for some California air and a vision of becoming famous (she’s been acting like a rock star her whole life).

Wasting no time to share her raw, emotional and honest sound, she began
booking local coffee shops, bars and small venues in Orange County. Kellie signed to Steel Records soon after she landed in California and started working on her first solo album, “Stereo type,” which was released Jan 2, 2010. I got to go to her CD release party in WF over Christmas and it was hella fun. She’s got a Sheryl Crow-esque sound that’s both familiar and fresh.

Kellie’s played with artists such as Cody Shaw and the Rhythm Boys, Austin-based artist Graham Wilkinson and James Mcmurtry, WideAwake and Dan Dyer.

Check out her music at www.myspace.com/kellielee. Or event better, go
buy it. Check out www.steelrecordsusa.com/shopkellielee for a list of links.
