About Me


“Somebody somewhere must know who Kelsey Wild is, considering she gets at least 600 Myspace plays a day, but I can’t figure out who. There isn’t much about her online, and when I attended her one local show a few months ago at a tiny piano bar in a hipster neighborhood in Wicker Park, there were five people in the room - - that’s counting myself and two of my friends. Maybe this is because she isn’t old enough to drink. Who knows?
Pretty disappointing considering what an amazing show it was. So who is she? She’s this ridiculously cute seventeen-year-old girl with an astounding voice, impeccable piano skills, and the cutest stage demeanor. I’m convinced this girl is a major label’s wet dream. Her songs are mature and well written, and her voice rocks you into deep thought.
Listen to “Meaningless” and remind yourself that this girl isn’t even old enough to buy a pack of smokes.”
