Kelly’s music covers an array of folk, reggae, bluegrass, and her own special flavor. Her lyrics speak to the separation between the modern and natural world. Her songs are full of food for thought, and her melodies are soothing and creative. Listeners may feel inclined to laugh or be brought to tears. Kelly’s musical studies started at a young age with keyboard and trumpet. Soon after, she picked up guitar, mostly learning to play by ear. A spark in 2009 lead her to start traveling-landing her on the Big Island of Hawaii. Here she found the Baritone Ukulele and a unique, free environment that allowed words and melodies to come alive and flow effortlessly. After releasing her first album Incredible Journey in February 2014, Kelly Hyde seeks to share her music with the masses.
