"Kelli Frances Corrado is the Betty Davis of Seattle"- Matt Sullivan, co-founder/owner, Light in The Attic Records
BIO
"An interesting life makes for interesting reading, or in the case of Kelli Frances Corrado, interesting listening. It only makes sense that someone whose been a tap dancer, an army wife, a helper of the homeless, and a music teacher, would record her music with a wish list mix of artists like producer Brian Deck(Iron & Wine, Califone), Jeramy Koepping (Voyager One, Grand Hallway), Grant Olson (Arthur & Yu), and other cool folk. Kelli Frances Corrado uses orchestration to create songs, and like her wanderous backround, the music pulls from a nomadic history. A history that includes four years with the band Arkade, exclusively working with producer Scott Colburn (Animal Collective, The Arcade Fire). Hopscotching from the past to the current, her new music has followed a gypsy map, having been recorded in venues ranging from a warehouse with a six second natural reverb, to a church, a boat house, and a sea plane port and with a band of drop-in musicians whose collective magic becomes her Hocus Pocus Orchestra."
