Kelley Hunt B2 Bio Final
Kelley Hunt • BIO • “THE BEAUTIFUL BONES” • EER1406 SINGER-SONGWRITER KELLEY HUNT BLENDS ROOTS, ROCK AND SOUL IN HER CINEMATIC NEW ALBUM THE BEAUTIFUL BONES Multi-instrumentalist’s co-produced sixth disc brings her stunning range and soulful vision to the fore with lavish support from cast of all-star musical friends LAWRENCE, KS — Kelley Hunt’s new album, The Beautiful Bones, offers a dozen superbly crafted songs that blend timeless music with a contemporary perspective – drawing a bead on modern life with grace, humor and gravity through the earthy poetry of her lyrics. Those songs are buoyed by a performing style that balances Hunt’s virtuosity with the down-home gospel, soul and R&B that’s part of her DNA. The title track is a perfect example of Hunt’s art, with its shimmering guitar and B-3 organ providing a gorgeously textured canvas for her haunting, soulful voice. And its storyline is an equally deep illustration of her multi-faceted writing, celebrating both the joy of life and its impermanence, while quietly reminding that the Earth is a delicate and mortal place that must be tended to flourish. “That song was the key to the album’s identity,” Hunt explains. “I had already written most of the songs, and felt they were about the things that are important to us all as people, but ‘The Beautiful Bones’ connected them. I was inspired by looking out my kitchen window while I was playing guitar and seeing the bare branches of a tree covered in snow, and I started to think about the layers we all have in our lives and the possibilities that come with each of them.

“Some Kind of Something Is Going on Down There” Crossroads at Congo Square by Robert H
Winter/Spring 2015 “Some Kind of Something Is Going On Down There” Crossroads at Congo Square by Robert H. Cataliotti The Neville Brothers’ live recording of the song “Congo Square” opens with a funky, percolating, second line1 drum groove, over which Cyril Neville declares, We’re gonna take you to New Orleans, To that place where American music was born, y’all, A place called Congo Square. The song, written by guitarist Sonny Landreth, harmonica player Mel Melton, and bassist David Ranson, is a paean to the nineteenth-century Sunday gatherings of African people on a field at the back of the city that were a combination of music and dance, spiritual ritual, marketplace, socializing, and tourist attraction. Congo Square in New Orleans brought together people from a range of African nations. While some were brought directly from Africa, many came through Saint-Domingue/Haiti and Cuba. African people born in the Americas also joined in the mix, and the gatherings attracted both the enslaved and free people of color (gens de couleur libres). In addition, Native Americans and Caucasian people whose origins were in Europe and the United States were drawn to the festivities. The gatherings in Congo Square were not only, as Neville asserts, an essential source point for American music; they were also an outlet to survive, resist, and transcend the brutal dehumanization and exploitation of slavery by maintaining a link to an African identity. These gatherings formed an artistic, cultural, and economic crossroads that was mysterious, powerful, and without precedent. As the song “Congo Square” proclaims, “some kind of something is going on down there.” Congo Square was unique because it was virtually the only locale in North America where African people were allowed to gather to perform their traditional music, especially their drumming.
