Hello people! I'm Dan Kelly and my job is to think of stuff and sing about it to you all! I have made two records and two e.p.s so far, both with a band (Dan Kelly and The Alpha Males) and solo. They are quite good! I have been nominated for 5 ARIA awards in Australia over the last three years and received some lovely reviews (and the odd half-arsed one which we will ignore for the sake of self promotion). The last album with the Alpha Males 'Drowning in the Fountain of Youth' won the Inpress Album of the year in 2006 and was also nominated for the 2006 JJJ award for Album of the year.My shows often have girls with glasses in the front writing stuff down in notebooks. How great is that! Eat your heart out NickelBack! I spent 2007 touring solo and playing guitar all over Australia and the world with Paul Kelly's fabulous Band of Excitement. Now i'm in London writing a new solo album which will hopefully be out by the end of the year. My god it will be incredible! ('MY GOD, i hope so..' sighs the beleaguered record company man)
If you want me to play at your venue please contact Brett Murrihy at the Harbour Agency in Sydney. His email is [email protected]. He's an all round top bloke. Tough but fair.
Please listen to my sample tracks and dig, groove, shake it etc
I also have a new website under construction at www.dankelly.com.au
I will use this site to detail every harrowing moment of my desperate race to put an album out before the final collapse of western society.
Of course it will also contain pretty pictures and lyrics and a complete history of all the fabulous Alpha Males and a 'What are they doing now?' page.
love to you all. Dan Kelly*******************************************************
