About Me

Olimb-Kelly is a singer/songwriter. Born in London, England. Now living in Norway, with my wife Hanne & black Labrador Ned. We live on a beautiful lake, & enjoy the local nature. After living in London most of my life. I moved to Norway in 2004. I have an extensive catalogue of songs. In various genres. It`s difficult to say "what type of music I write" As it depends on the mood, & feel at the time on conception. I enjoy many types of music, which has influenced my writing. From 60s soul/blues, the Beatles, Stones. to the Sex Pistols, Clash, Joni Mitchel, Nivana. I also enjoy many of todays bands. From Outkast to the Artic monkeys. At present I`m not playing any gigs, but I have a number of songs, that I`m intent on recording................. I`m also hoping a big selling act or more. Would like some of my songs enough to record them....... So any superstars out there, or your P.As. You know where to contact me!!!!!!!! Enough self promotion, any of you hugely talented folk out there want to collaborate musically, please get in touch.
