Grace Kelly’s songwriting is as amazing as her voice. “Feels Like Home” is just one example of how her gentleness and subtlety can command attention and evoke strong emotion. – Aloe Blacc
Grace Kelly at Le Poisson rouge on July 26th, 2018
After her recent Joy Party Tour visiting some of the United States’ sunniest locales in celebration of the launch of new record GO TiME: Brooklyn, young saxophonist-singer-songwriter phenom Grace Kelly is ready to kick it up a notch with the second installment of the innovative combination video/audio album, [GO TiME: Brooklyn 2]. The official album release show will premiere at the musician-founded multimedia art venue (Le) Poisson Rouge in New York City on July 26, 2018, with special guest Elliott Skinner of Thirdstory.
“I’m extremely excited to be preparing to release [GO TiME: Brooklyn 2], which features the latter half of the GO TiME: Brooklyn live show inside the Systems 2 recording studio. Fans on our tour and online loved the dynamism and audio quality of the music in the first CD, plus the ability to watch the professionally filmed video footage online whenever they want,” Kelly says. “This second album keeps those same core elements while pushing the envelope musically to explore the sonic world where jazz meets electronic, contemporary, and pop influences.”
Songs from [GO TiME: Brooklyn 2], which will include “Gracified” covers of classic Rolling Stones and Ray Charles hits, have already been seeing significant traction online. BuzzFeed Video’s Facebook clip of “Fish and Chips,” a dancing saxophone duet with Leo P of Too Many Zooz, has garnered over 395,000 views since mid-May. The new album will include the full track and video of “Fish and Chips” as well as the soulful fan favorite “Feels Like Home,” which was recorded as a duet with the aforementioned Elliott Skinner.

An unequivocal musical prodigy, singer-saxophonist-songwriter-composer Grace Kelly has rocked the jazz world with sold-out concerts, 13 acclaimed albums and a resume that includes performing at the Hollywood Bowl and as part of the house band for “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” – all before reaching her mid-twenties.
Kelly’s early career featured performances at Barack Obama’s 2016 inauguration and as a soloist with the Boston Pops playing an original composition arranged for the legendary orchestra; she has since then played over 900 shows as bandleader in 35 countries at venues like the Kennedy Center and Moscow Symphony Hall and for the Montreal, Newport, and Montreux international jazz festivals. Touted for her scorching saxophone stylings and purring vocals, Kelly has performed and recorded with renowned artists including Lin Manuel-Miranda, Dave Brubeck, Phil Woods, Huey Lewis, Harry Connick Jr., Gloria Estefan, Questlove, and Wynton Marsalis.
As the Winner of “Song of the Year” for her single “Feels Like Home” in the 2018 John Lennon Songwriting Contest, Kelly has also won multiple ASCAP Composer Awards, Boston Music Awards, multiple DOWNBEAT music awards, International Songwriting Awards. She has also appeared as a featured performer in films and television, including acclaimed documentary “Sound of Redemption: The Frank Morgan Story”, Amazon’s Emmy-nominated original series “Bosch”, and featured in the 2017 Emmy-winning Yamaha production “The Right Note”
Featured by Vanity Fair as a millennial shaking up the jazz world, Kelly’s state-of-the-art brand of electro jazz-pop and inventive digital content are pushing her to the forefront of the fusion scene, alongside names like Snarky Puppy, Jacob Collier, Cory Henry, Robert Glasper, Jon Batiste, and Too Many Zooz.
“The GO TiME: Brooklyn album was a turning point in my career as a performer who loves connecting with audiences,” Kelly says. “Because we were able to use technology to capture the visual aspect and live energy of the show in a new way, I could really bring my whole dancing, furry-pink-boa-wearing self to the project – and the response was incredible. After over a decade of performing internationally and releasing albums, I’ve found that I grow so much as an artist when I focus on helping my fans feel the same exhilaration and joy that I do when I perform for them.”
Kelly’s live performance is offering a unique musical journey and contagious exuberance on stage, and will captivate audiences as she performs new songs from this new album GO TiME: Live in LA : her 13th CD and the third video album in the GO TiME series. The new release continues her innovative video album concept for fans by incorporating special guests and adding her own inventive dance moves while playing. Performing her fresh, playful musical stylings, Grace’s infectious positivity and charismatic stage presence bring a smile to everyone.
