Recording Artist Kelly Lee Evans joins RBC Bluesfest Be in the Band
Universal Recording artist Kelly Lee Evans recently paid a visit to RBC Bluesfest Be in the Band at Notre Dame High School. The band played songs that they have been working on with local music coach Ric Denis and worked on their overall performance style. Kelly Lee, in addition to being a mom of 3, musician and touring artist, is the current artist in residence at Carleton University.
From her website: “The Canadian rising star singer/songwriter Kellylee Evans is a chameleon-like performer, whose natural charm and improvisational jazz vocal style have shined on her adventurous journey through jazz, soul, pop and hip-hop over the past decade. In that period, she released two indie solo albums of original songs in Canada, earned two Juno Award nominations (winning “Best Jazz Vocal Album” for Nina, her impassioned tribute to Nina Simone), captivated adoring French and Canadian fan bases and performed around the world, opening for such stars as John Legend, Dianne Reeves, Derek Trucks, George Benson and Willy Nelson”.
