Member Since1/17/2005
Band Websitehttp://www.kellypettit.com
Band MembersBand or solo, I do it all. It's better wages on your own but I prefer to play with a band because every time I make a mistake I have someone else to blame it on!
InfluencesLance Armstrong and Al Gore are pretty amazing and inspirational men. Cycling 100 miles a day for a month and Global Warming equally freak me out! Terry Fox and my Dad also cast shadows that I'd be honored to follow! When it comes to music ( and a different form of 'ONE LIFE TO LIVE SO LIVE IT")...recently, Ben Lee, Finn brothers, Neil Finn, Tim Finn, Broken Condom Babies, Mark Clay, Theory of a Dead Man, Maroon 5, Craig Northey, Strippers Union, Simple Plan, Ryan Adams, Switchfoot, Northey and Valenzuela, Brad Paisley, Colin James, Jason Mraz, Jayhawks, Howie Day, Golden Smog, Gavin DeGraw, Jack Johnson, Son Volt, Wilco, Ben Harper, etc. Bands that had an impact on me include Neil Finn, Crowded House, Finn Brothers, The Refreshments, Odds, Beatles, Great Big Sea, Hothouse Flowers, Gin Blossoms, Paul Simon, Sting, Billy Joel, Bryan Adams, Blue Rodeo, Waterboys, Things of Stone and Wood, Paul Kelly, Odds, U2, Del Amitri, Barenaked Ladies, Toad the Wet Sprocket, . and I'm sure there's a hell of a lot more if I could just pull them out of this head of mine right now.
Sounds LikeIf you're into Mariah Carey, Britney Spears, or Celine Dion, then this music probably isn't for you! How to describe my music......? I suppose if you put Crowded House's leading member Neil Finn in a room with Bryan Adams and the Jayhawks, you'd come up with something similar to my music. ________________________________________________________________

Kelly has a strong Japanese Fan base but since the release of FUEL his popularity is quickly rising in the US,Canada,& Australia. FUEL is diverse in styles but unified in talent, great voice and catchy melodies. Car driving music.Thanks ---- Kelly

KELLY PETTIT'S SHORT BIO

Not only has Canadian born Kelly Pettit been able to get his music spread out across 4 continents, but this Japan based musician has achieved this in ways that break the traditional mold of how a band should be heard. On his 4th Album titled “FUEL”, Kelly showcases exactly what makes him so alluring. His mass appeal didn’t happen over night. Kelly has been slowly accumulating a loyal fan base since his first CD, “Life through a Windshield” and word of mouth about his music has graduated him to becoming a bona fide contender as a solid songwriter. His newest release “FUEL” has recently been reaching the masses through fans on Social Networks via the internet. It also won an international Ultimate Band Contest which started with over 2000 bands from all over the world; received great reviews in magazines like Artist Direct, Indie Artists, and the Tokyo music scene; and landed him newspaper and television space. Then, his song “She’s Just Like Summer”, won track of the month on ABC’s Fame Games radio which receives over 4 million listeners. Kelly’s growing popularity has led him to perform in front of sold out crowds of die hard Japanese fans.

On FUEL, Kelly takes a diverse approach to writing each song but always keeping in mind a feel good, energy driven approach. Having a close relationship and working with Canadian pop rock icons from the 90’s “ODDS” and Kelly Clarkson’s multi instrumentalist Cory Churko, Kelly took advantage of their understanding of crafting great melodic songs. “There are no bells and whistles in this album. It’s just solid musicians digging deep into each song to make them something special,” says Kelly. The result is a sonic experience described by Kelly as folk rock with a hint of alt-country and melodically driven for car driving.

Influenced largely by Australian bands like Crowded House, songwriter Neil Finn, Things of Stone and Wood, and Australian Paul Kelly, along with North American counterparts The Jayhawks, Barenaked Ladies, and the Counting Crows, Kelly works to define a sound all his own with musicianship and a dedication to each detail of the songwriting process. “My influences are quite diverse and you can really hear that in this CD. What’s constant is my attempt to keep the CD happy and upbeat”, says Kelly. Tracks like “She’s Just Like Summer”, “Little Imperfections”, and “World Is Turning” sum up that statement clearly while tracks like “Buy Now Pay Later” and “When You’re Alone” take a second listen to understand the positive message hidden in the lyrics. As one reviewer wrote, “It's clear by listening to FUEL that Kelly is a master singer/songwriter. His soulful tunes and easy vocals will make this CD, and any he comes out with next a "MUST HAVE".

PS. Anyone who purchases the CD gets two extra songs emailed to them to show appreciation!

£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!

Hugs from Brazil,
