Born and raised in Rochester, NY, Taylor Kelly is now a fixture in the vibrant Philadelphia music scene further honing her introspective take on jazz, soul, and funk. She combines her smooth, powerful, technically-informed voice with a full horn section, addictive hip hop and electronic beats, and complex arrangements. Her sound is a dynamic blend of several genres but ultimately establishes a strikingly authentic niche all its own, rich with melodic contour, intricate harmonies, and deeply personal but anthemic lyricism. 
 ‘All I Need’, Kelly’s latest EP released February 2022, is an intimate and minimalistic departure from her previous work, which typically features an 8-piece band. Kelly recorded this project alone with her producer, Robby Webb, at his home studio before adding the colors, textures and prowess of Danae Greenfield (keys), Simon Martinez (guitar), Matt Keppler (bass), Conner Saltzer (drums), Frankie DeRosa (strings) and Zeek Burse (additional vocals). Kelly’s voice is the most prominent instrument in this latest project, providing both the melodic focal point of the track as well as lush, layered harmonies for a deeply groovy and sometimes melancholic meditation on stagnancy, yearning and self-actualization. 
 Kelly has amassed over half a million streams for her single “California” on streaming platforms worldwide and has shared the stage with St. Paul and the Broken Bones, Moonchild, Becca Stevens, Monophonics, Neal Francis and Georgia Anne Muldrow.
