With his second album, Speak Your Mind, new alt-folk darling Ian Kelly confirms his innate sense of melody. Straightforward, with sensitivity and intelligence, his songs reflect the preoccupations of a young man of 30: love, war, the environment... With his hushed vocals and refined arrangements, Kelly brings new colours to folk. Onstage, the singer-songwriter unfurls his musical vision in a trio, supported by two wonderful musicians, Jon Day on keyboards and Mark Nelson on drums.
