CD review of Brian Kelly’s Afterplay from SmoothJazz.com
Brian Kelly @ 2:17 pm
“Brian Kelly follows his brilliant debut release POOLS OF LIGHT with yet another outstanding, compelling collection of originals… The musical integrity and lyrical sensitivity that Mr. Kelly brings to the table for his projects is clearly evident on this release. At a time when commercial Smooth Jazz too often heads in the direction of cliché, Brian Kelly’s AFTERPLAY is a refreshing example of how we can keep this music genre exciting and vibrant!” - SmoothJazz.com

CD Review: Brian Kelly - Pools Of Light
Brian Kelly @ 12:00 am
CD Review of Pools of Light - SmoothJazz.com
Here’s an excerpt from the review:
“…POOLS OF LIGHT is a lush, sparkling journey into a beautiful world of elegant melodies and brilliant artistry. The music rises and falls in powerful, yet gentle, waves of emotion… a totally captivating collection of original compositions that range from delicate, heartfelt solo piano (”Home At Last” and “Speak Your Heart”) to ensemble performances that are full of dynamic tonal color and intricacies. My favorites include the breezy “Open Sky,” the engaging, jazzy “Cool Blue,” and the equally jazzy and tasty “When the Stars Align.” … he translates complex emotions into engaging musical experiences that both captivate and inspire. I highly recommend Brian Kelly’s POOLS OF LIGHT as a collection of music that I am confident will find a permanent place in the “most-played” section of your music library!” Read the entire review.
