It’s is just another way of spelling my name Kelly that I thought was unique!
What gets your creative juices flowing?
Listening to my favorite songs and wanting to create songs like them. Before I go into studio I always like to feel relaxed and clear headed as I want to be in my truest form.
Take us through your songwriting process.
I decide what kind of feel I like soundwise and listen to a few beats with my team. The process of lyrics and style follows from the vibe I get from the track. In studio is where the magic happens when the lyrics are finished and the track is laid down. The process for me has always been so fun and exciting as the finished product is always amazing. My creative team are phenomenal
