notes

"I love to sing, I love to perform and I love to write songs. There's really nothing else in the world I'd rather be doing."

West coast singer, performer and songwriter, Kelly Brock has had music in her blood since day one. She grew up singing, dancing and performing for family and friends and was encouraged to embrace the arts by her music/teacher Father and dancer/writer Mother.

This natural talent for singing steered Kelly towards the music community during her mid teens. Fronting bands, writing songs and singing demos ultimately saw Kelly release her debut CD, entitled, Kelly Brock. Released in 1997, the single "Sacred" received airplay on CHR and A/C stations along with the song being featured on DAWSON'S CREEK.

Role models such as Stevie Nicks, Tom Petty and Sheryl Crow helped pave a path for Brock's groove-oriented pop/roots/rock style. "I am attracted to a certain pop sensibility when it comes to songwriting." reflects Kelly. "It is also important for me to write and perform songs that have some personal meaning and emotional depth, wrapped up along with all the other elements that make for a great pop song."

Her second CD entitled SO CLOSE, released January 2000, is a continuation of Kelly's growth as a writer, vocalist and producer. There is a wide range of emotions portrayed here on her latest offering. From overcoming defeat and loss on the uplifting A LOT OF LITTLE THINGS "Laugh away/ let all the pain out/ You've got a lot of little things to be high about/ Just let go of self-doubt/ You've got a lot of little things to smile about". She touches on avoiding the pitfalls of alcohol abuse in the song INTOXICATED, expresses her sorrow on love lost in YOU'D BE MINE and reveals her sensual side in EVERYTHING IS GOOD.

"I write from experience - I put my heart on my sleeve and pray for the best. It's scary at times stripping down one's emotions and baring it all for the world to see but I really feel I have no other choice- I can't perform a song properly unless I'm emotionally attached to it."
