We like flattery!

A couple of months ago we played at the KC Highland Games “on the grassy fields of E.H. Young Riverfront Park in Riverside, Missouri” . We moseyed in, followed some bagpipers around, and played a set on a lovely little stage by the river. Here’s what one of the festival organizers had to say:

KELLY! YOU WERE WONDERFUL!! We really thought you were great. Just lovely stuff. I hope you keep working as a group, because you really are traditional and fresh at the same time. Please pass along my congrats to everyone. I was busy when you finished, so I didn’t get to give you a hug, but the four of you were really terrific. The audience was very pleased with you!

Some reviews from live gigs

“Just wanted to give ‘Kelly’ a thanks for a great performance. You all are awesome and in my humble opinion the most talented group that performed at the festival. You’ve got a loyal fan with me and I know others will be jumpin’ on the fan ‘band’ wagon.
One of my favorite Irish blessings goes like this: ‘May you never forget what’s worth remembering, or remember what’s best forgotten.’
I know ‘Kelly’ is sure worth rememberin’ and as always I will pass the word to catch your performances.”

Hey -
I enjoyed the show Saturday night. Thank you. I can see everybody’s put lots of work into the band and I’m eager to check the first CD as everything unfolds.
