Say it with a Song

About Me

Keltrix are a fresh and feisty 5 piece - formed in March 2006, they regularly stir their audiences into a happy frenzy with a lively sound that defies pigeon-holing.About 2 years ago, singer/songwriter Keri Williamson, took it upon herself to learn the guitar- facilitating a huge back-log of lyrics and melodies to become the songs that they deserved to be. Next, came the rhythm section, musical protege, Jake Skinner added his own multi-fusion drum styles, Subsequently, classically trained violinist and dance music producer, Sharon Sullivan- having worked previously with Keri on their own blend of raw and raunchy live dance music joined up to swell the sound. Multi-instrumentalist, Phil Rose compliments the line up with God-like abilities on mandolin and electric guitar, and then along came Nick Townsend with his bouncing brilliance on the bass guiter... Ta da! The aim is to strike a chord that appeals to all walks of life with a variety of soundscapes, eclectic, ancestral, contempory music and thought provoking lyrics; songs to dance to and songs to relate and relax to. Keltrix have built up a fan base through festival performances at the likes of Strawberry Fair, Small World and Sunrise Festival and online, they also play activley around the south-east of England and are looking to tour the UK.

Sounds Like: Sounds................ ’The Keltrix sound is high-octane folk rock with strong acoustic, percussive flavour. Keri’s fiesty spirit shows throughout both music and perfromance. They perform with a co-operation not often seen in the rock music world. The bands songwriter, Keri Williamson leads with husky vocals reminiscent of Janis Joplin and a touch of Sandy Denny, is an independent and thought provoking young woman.’ANNE RYAN - MOVING TONE NEWS. MAY 2007.’Keltrix - With their reputation for knowing how to get a party started preceding them, the dancefloor is full from the onset and soon enough there is jigging aplenty. Check out Keltrix!’ ART AND SOUL MAGAZINE. FEB 2008.’Keltrix instantly injected the room with a uniquely magic atmosphere. Singer Keri Williamson has an expert milky warm voice. The 5 band members matched perfectly their superb music with looks and talents that contributed to making their act a uniquely festive and excellent one.’ SURFACE UNSIGNED FESTIVAL. 2008’It has become standard for young bands to try to fit into one genre to be the next big thing. Then pops up Keri Williamson with her band Keltrix, who are definatly not playing by the rules. Flipping easily between folk, reggae and good old fashioned indie rock. The Keltrix EP is an interesting listen, anaptly showcases a band who are not afraid to be different. TOM ADAMS - MOVING TONE NEWS. 2008
