“Shred Kelly is a formulation of friends and foot stomping good times born in the East Kootenay\u2019s of British Columbia. Hailing from the town of Fernie, the five piece band is best known for mixing clawhammer banjo riffs that tear the fabric of space and time with ambient synth, high voltage guitar, fierce drums, and hauntingly sweet vocal harmonies to produce a sound that has been properly coined \u201cStoke Folk\u201d.<\/p>\n

While their gritty and fun 2010 album \u201cGoodbye July\u201d still resonates strongly with boot slappin\u2019 slacker anthems such as \u201cI Hate Work\u201d and \u201cGhost Inside My Head\u201d, their newest full length album release \u201cIn the Hills\u201d takes the mountain string band and adds a cup of electric shock, belting out stories of small town love and tragedy in the places they hail from.\u00a0 Having recently been awarded 2012 Artist of the Year at the Kooteney Music Awards and winning a spot on the Green Couch Sessions\/CBC Radio 3 \u2018Tracks on Tracks\u2019 train adventure from Vancouver to Toronto, Shred Kelly is turning banjo doubters into sweaty indie folk rock believers on the dance floor, one town at a time.”<\/p>\n
