Hailing from New Orleans, Lousiana, Kelly Love Jones encompasses the cultural richness of her hometown in her music. With her own unique blend of acoustic guitar, folk, hip hop, blues and poetry; Kelly, who was voted "best emerging artist" at the Big Easy Awards has impressed audiences of music lovers both at home and overseas. Drawing inspiration for lyrics from her daily life experiences; Kelly has, for the past 12 years, used music as an emotional outlet, linking her with the hearts of her listeners through personal rhythmic reflection. In her own words, "It's the connection that makes the music worth making.
Kelly's potential is as limitless as her aspirations and the once exclusive MC turned singer-songwriter acknowledges no boundaries on her future direction. Among her objectives is the development of a sound that will allow her to "converse with the child within all of us," an objective which the young artist pursues by working with female youth groups and maintaining a refreshing simplicity in her music. True to her New Orleanean roots, and in her quest for that "basic sound," Kelly has even taken to creating percussion instruments and features many of her creations on her most recent project "Portrait of a Solo Artist." Most recently Kelly was named Singer/Songwriter of the year for Creative Loafing Newspaper/Magazine.

Did you know that it's Beautiful Women Month? Well, it is and that means you!!!
I'm supposed to send this to FIVE BEAUTIFUL WOMEN, and you are one of them!!!
Below is a wonderful poem Audrey Hepburn wrote when asked to share her "beauty tips?" It was read at her funeral years later.
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness...For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone... People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone.
Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms.
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping others.
If you share this with another woman, something good will happen. You will boost another woman's self esteem, and she will know that you care about her.
It's BEAUTIFUL Women Month Hugs, Squeeeeeze!!! You've been given a hug.
