  • Bio

    ..Stefanie Kelly started singing in church when she was two years old, and although she ran off the stage crying that first Sunday, she picked up her boots (or rather tears) and has been at it ever since. .. .. .. As a musician, Stefanie's style is an eclectic mix of R&B, Jazz and Rock. Classically trained in voice and piano with a rich history of jazz studies, her original music chronicles the life story of a believer who still struggles, but ultimately finds hope in the Lord. Stefanie's lyrics journal her joys, heartaches, simple pleasures, real doubts, but real faith in Christ alone. .. .. .. A graduate from Berklee College of Music, Stefanie has continued her life-long career of composing, recording, touring, and musical direction. Currently, Stefanie is the Worship Arts Director at the Rock Church in San Diego, CA, with pastor Miles McPherson, where she leads worship and is honored to mentor tomorrow's generation of worshipers. In 2010, she released her third record of original tunes, and while Stefanie is focused in the studio, her heart is most at home leading worship - although every now and then she loves to sit in and jam at a jazz club over a cup of...soy decaf latte!.. .. .. Some of her career highlights include performances with musicians David Foster, Josh Groban, Natalie Cole, Israel Houghton, Leeland, Tommy Walker, Ricardo Sanchez, Rachael Lampa, Sarah Kelly, Vickey Beeching, Ramin Djawadi, Smokey Robinson, Paul Anka, Deanna Carter, Lila McCann, Third Day, Newsboys, Al Denson, Bryan Duncan, the Katinas, Johnny Mann, Matt Goss, Kim Boyce, Larnelle Harris, Ralph Carmichael, Nate Morton, Nathan East, Michael Thompson, Abraham Laboriel, Bill Maxwell, John Ferraro, Matt Bissonette, Steve Smith, Neil Stubenhaus, Ian Martin, Shawn Tubbs, Bob Wilson, and the Scottsdale Symphony. She has performed for recording artists James Taylor, James Ingram, Denise Williams, Dionne Warwick, Steven Curtis Chapman, Helen Baylor, Billy Preston, CeCe Winans, Oleta Adams, Randy Travis, Peabo Bryson, Melissa Manchester, Christopher Cross, Horace Silver, Ramsey Lewis, Arif Mardin, songwriters Alan Menken, Marilyn Bergman, Lou Pardini and Michael Masser, celebrities Herschel Walker, LaDainian Tomlinson, Wayne Gretzky, David Robinson, Elizabeth Dole, Congresswoman Mary Bono, the Rev. Billy Graham, the Rev. Rick Warren, Ken Blanchard, and the U.S. Figure Skating Team. She has also worked with Grammy nominated and award winning producers Dan Garcia, John Andrew Schreiner, Michael C. Ross, Matt Bronlewee, Jamie Kenney and Bill Schnee. .. ..
