Sounds Like
I'm sure I sound like all my influences but people say they can't put their finger on it.
I'm a singer songwriter from Teaneck New Jersey (by way of Nashville) living in St. Petersburg Fl. I own and operate HIDEAWAY RECORDING STUDIO, INC. I've been at it for several years and have played with some of the greatest musicians out there. I have just finished my latest CD, "The Stage" which is available for download through Dig Station below. Hard copies are available at JohnKelly.biz. I have a beautiful wife, Nicole and two extra special little guys, Jackson and Brennan. I'm truly blessed to have what I have and am so thankful for every bit of it.
