Kelli Frances Corrado is a singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, a quilt of memories and mysticism. Growing up in Chicago, she would sneak out during school nights to see hip hop shows and spend Sundays learning prayer rituals taught by a Bohemian Czech grandmother. This set a unique musical foundation. Leading her to pursue opera training, string arranger, beat making and classical poetry. Giving voice to her spiritual beliefs. She has lived many lives before putting her heart in song: social worker, student, tap dancer, teacher, wanderer. Living in the Black Forest, London and by the sea. These patches of experience bring together a musical broth of magical realism and urban life ripe of lucid dreams and superstition. Using weird and wonderful places to record- a seaplane port, boat house, warehouse with six second reverb and an old school from the 1900's. Bringing in a rotating cast of talented musicians and producers: Brian Deck (Iron and Wine, Califone), Adrienne Davies (Earth), Lori Goldston, Nick LaMantia, Bobby Wane, Grant Olsen (Gold Leaves), Caitlin Olive, Derek Terran (Wind Burial),Jeffery Mcnulty as engineer and co-producer on all releases and mastered by Shawn Hatfield at Audible Oddities.
