Passionate, Electrifying, Blues-Based Rock with a Psychedelic Twist!!! “Stevie Ray Vaughn trapped in a woman's body with Janis Joplin screaming to get out.” This is how one critic describes Kelly Richey, a blues-based rock virtuoso. The Kelly Richey Band tours extensively bringing their electric live experience to venues throughout the US, Canada, and Europe.
The attention centers around this Kentucky native’s guitar playing; Richey’s proficiency has earned her comparisons to Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan while gaining her a place on stage with blues legends, Albert King and Lonnie Mack. As one journalist put it, “Imagine a cross between Bonnie Raitt and Ruth Brown and you’ve only begun to get the picture.”
Built on unforgettable and explosive live performances, the Kelly Richey Band has developed an almost cult-like following. Richey has released ten CDs, as both a solo artist and with her band. In her adopted hometown of Cincinnati, OH, Richey and her band have won multiple awards including Best Blues/RB Band, Best Rock Band, Best Musician and Best Band. Motter Flynn opens the show!
