Former frontwoman of Boston indie pop bands the Drop Nineteens, Boy Wonder, and Hot Rod, Paula Kelley is a genuine pure pop auteur who is not in need of bandmates to confirm her considerable talents. In the process [of forging her solo identity], she has emerged as an impressively versatile songwriter, conversant in the various strains of indie pop, bubblegum, and twee pop. After a string of albums with said bands, Kelley bolted from Boy Wonder as a collaborator to fully indulge her pop muse in the less confining role as solo songwriter in 2000. Now free to finally make the undiluted pop masterpiece she has seem primed to make her whole professional career, Nothing/Everything arrived in 2001 and hardly disappointed, showing Kelley's willingness to drift into the more pristine waters of pop music while leaving the volume and vigor of alternative rock behind. Two years later, Kelley's shiny twee stylings got a bit darker with The Trouble with Success or How You Fit Into the World.
Thank you, The Paula Kelley Orchestra. I have never been supported so heartily by a whole band before. Tell me, how do you speak As One like you do? It's like some crazy Borg thing. Amazing, you are.
Just dropping by to let you know that I have a new album out entitled 'Anitya.' It is currently available for download from Amazon.com. It is album consisting of ten acoustic folk rock songs with traditional east asian influences. It centers around the idea of anitya or impermanence in Buddhism, and the interaction between failure and ideals. So take some time and enjoy the new songs! peace,
My trial? My how time flies. No idea what you're talking about. Probably some clever wisecrack that I'm failing to grok. Yep, I wear - wore - glasses. Now I don't. I always lose them, and hell, I do fine without them.
Come by and listen to the new song "Losing Streak" from my record "One and Only Maybe", produced by Michael Eisenstein, available for purchase from my page. Peace. Seth.

Haha. Nice to see Night Racer posted. One of my faves. The fam is diggin' Airports. Life for Life is my 3-year-old's bed time anthem. You must be doing something that strikes at the inner core of his very being. That kid don't sit still for nothing.
