Hey folks.. I want to thank everyone for coming to our shows. We've haven't been playing as much as we once did but have been able to keep two steady bookings that allow us the opportunity to get out there and do our thing and just want to say thank you to the folks that continue to come see us.

You can always catch us at The Old Northeast Tavern in St. Petersburg, the last Saturday of every month at 9 PM and The Bonefish Grill in Carrol Wood the 3rd Wednesday of every month. Both are fantastic places to catch us... great food and atmosphere with friendly staff.

I've finally been doing some writing and hope to complete another CD by the end of the year... wishful thinking maybe. But I'm working on it... keep an eye out.

All for now... Cheers! john

Hey folks... long time. I hope you're doing well as we get into 2010. wow... March already. Well the band is playing a few shows a month for the next several months. You can catch us at The Bonefish Grille in Carrollwood every 3rd Wednesday of the month from 8:00 to 10:00 PM. And The Old Northeast Tavern In St. Petersburg, FL every last Saturday of the month from 9:00 PM to midnight. These are perfect places to meet friends and family, grab a bite to eat and listen to the JKB. We hope you'll join us at one of these great locations.

My song "Country Livin' was featured on Country Station 106.5 WQTC this past Sunday and will be for the next few between 7:00 and 8:00 PM as part of their "Home Grown" show. So tune your dial to 106.5 this Sunday and catch "Country Livin" over the air waves. If you've heard the song before or know us, its a lot of fun to hear it on the radio.

All for now, Cheers! john

It's been a while since I've played with my band and I sure miss it. We will be playing once a month beginning in January at The Bonefish Grille in Tampa. They're starting to put music shows together and have asked us to kick it off. Looks like it will be the third Wednesday of every month. More to come on that subject.

I've been working on my next project that I hope to have completed by next fall. Much harder these days to pull my music together but have been writing when I can and am liking what's coming out... hope you will too. Anyway, best to all. Have a great New Year's and even better New Year.

Cheers! john

The John Kelly Band is excited to be a part of a very worthy event being put on by the St Petersburg Clay Company next weekend - Friday, November 13 from 7 to 10. With all proceeds going to benefit Ministries of Women and Children, music by the John Kelly Band and celebrating new work by Bonnie Duncan Bravo, Elizabeth Bunbury & Sean Manning, you don't want to miss this day of God's hand in art at its best!

Hey folks... Just wanted to let you know that the John Kelly Band will be playing this Saturday at the Old Northeast Tavern. The band is still playing the last Saturday of the month there and we look forward to it every month.

I've been working on my next project which has come much slower than any other. Mostly due to the normal grind of everyday life. All is good though and I'm still grateful to have even one song come my way so keep a look out.

Nicole and I have been hard at work with the Hideaway Cafe hideawaycafe.biz which is offering great music every Tuesday and Thursday evenings with select showcases on scheduled weekends. If you're interested in either playing or just attending, please contact me from the contact link above or visit Hideaway's web site.

All for now... don't forget to come catch us at our favorite little pub in town this Saturday night. Cheers! john
