about

Kelly Richey pairs up with Grammy award-winning producer John Snyder to create a fresh take on the heart of American rock 'n roll.  The album is an 11-song anthem that marks Richey’s best guitar and vocal work to date. Richey’s strong blues background is evident on songs like "Lifetime Guarantee" and Nina Simone’s intense "Nobody's Fault But Mine." Her gritty rock 'n roll leanings bust out on the tough-girl "Angel from Heaven" and the plaintive "Sending Me Angels." Richey's textural alto voice perfectly complements her brawny guitar work, and the sonic package was masterfully captured by John Snyder, whose previous albums, including Etta James' “Mystery Lady,”   have won a total of five Grammy Awards. Snyder brought on musicians that could match Kelly's explosive prowess on the guitar: Jack Holder (who has worked with Tracy Chapman and Johnny Lang), Ernest Williamson (BB King and Albert Collins), Steve Potts (Wynnona Judd and Al Green), and Dave Smith (Everything But the Girl and Coco Montoya.)   Songwriters for the album include Jerry Lynn Williams, who penned five of the songs on Eric Clapton's multiple Grammy-winning “Journeyman” album; Delbert McClinton, who wrote hits for Tanya Tucker and Emmylou Harris; and Craig Fuller, of Pure Prairie League, who has written for Vince Gill and Waylon Jennings. Richey composed four originals for the album, including a collaboration with Gary "Mudbone" Cooper (P-Funk; Bootsy's Rubber Band) on the magical “Angel From Heaven.”
