Kellen Kennedy
Kellen began her music journey with me in October 2011, when she was just 12-years old. I have been privileged to be her musical mentor all these many years as she has performed in several groups, duos, and as a solo performer.
During her senior year at Cherokee Trail HS, Kellen performed in an all-girl rock band called Crop Circles with other CTHS girls. They rehearsed every week at my studio. Upon her arrival in NYC, Kellen joined another all-girl rock band called Feral Romance, playing originals and covers at venues around the city.
She is currently performing her solo acoustic set of original music.
Kellen is a talented singer, songwriter, and guitarist. Her lovely voice is blessed with a sweet and natural Irish ornamentation or lilt. She arranged vocal harmonies and performed with a student a cappella group while attending the University of Colorado.
She is also an accomplished award-winning artist who creates beautiful paintings and has exhibited her work in galleries around NYC.
Kellen has a very bright scientific mind: She is currently working on her masters degree in Biomedical Engineering at Columbia University in New York City. She moved to NYC in 2023 when she was hired by a lab that does stem cell research.
Since then she has been performing her original music at venues all around the city.
Kellen has a kind and caring heart, and a free bohemian spirit. She is a fearless and independent girl with a strong sense of her self, and of her art.
She possesses a bold sense of adventure: Kellen spent the summer after college graduation backpacking -alone- across Europe for two months.
She especially loves the music of poets and dreamers, legendary songwriters like Townes Van Zandt, Bob Dylan, Kris Kristofferson, and Joni Mitchell.
I am very proud of this sweet and talented young woman!
