Kelly started her music career at 16 years old when she provided the vocals ON N-Trance's 'Set You Free'. N-Trance were two of her friends from college. N-Trance at the time were signed up by Pete Waterman who's been responsible for huge hits in the late eighties and early nineties for the likes of Kylie Minogue, Sybil, Mel & Kim and countless more. However due to various problems it was felt that 'Set You Free' wasn't getting the attention it deserved. After almost a year in late 1993 All Around The World (AATW) records decided to give N-Trance a go and released the track. On it's initial release it bombed failing even to dent the top 75. On it's second release in 1994 it peaked at 39. But on it's third release it took the UK by storm spending countless weeks on the chart in mid 1995.
On a high from the success of 'Set You Free' Kelly got a solo record deal with Pukka records and set about crafting her first release 'Brighter Day'. Sadly the track never really took off missing a crucial top 40 chart position. Sadly this was the shape of things to come for Kelly's solo career over the next few years.
Remixes have always been a way of keeping classic tunes fresh. Even the most unlikely of songs have been turned into energy filled anthems. In 2001 N-Trance decided to make a collection of the best remixes of 'Set You Free' and put them out as a single. This proved to be highly successful making it a hit all over again all around Europe. Kelly's services were called upon once again to promote the new mixes and a fine job she did of it too!
Shortly after Kelly was asked to re-record the old Rank 1 club hit 'True Love Never Dies' by trance maestro's Flip & Fill. The track was a huge hit all over Europe in late 2001 and a big top 10 in the UK in early 2002. Kelly finally achieved solo success in July 2002 with a superb version of on of her favourite songs Taylor Dayne's 'Tell It To My Heart' which made number 9 on the UK chart! More recently Kelly has released a new track 'Forever' with N-Trance which made number 6 in September 2002. Kelly's long awaited debut album 'All Clubbed Up' was released in November 2003 and has since been certified as a Silver album shipping over 60,000 units.
Kelly has been extremely quiet over the past few years. She has continued to perform live to huge crouds accross clubland but her only hit has been the early 2004 release 'This Time I Know It's For Real'. However, things are about to change and a couple of new singles and Kelly's second solo album are due for release in 2006 via All Around The World
