Kelli Campbell

Kelli is a natural born singer with musical roots that run deep.  Her melodic voice, which takes you back to an era with the likes of Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald, was developed under the tutelage of her mother, a classically trained pianist and violinist.  Her father, a singer and poet, also lends his talents to the gene pool.  Her parents performed and recorded music with a variety of gospel choirs and groups.  Kelli recalls many rehearsals that took place right in her living room while she sat and dreamed of the day she would be able to join in.  Her favorite memories would be of her mother and father sitting around the piano singing playing those, what she called, “old songs”.  Songs like, “Misty”, “Moody’s Mood for Love” and “Something Cool” would stick with her and become the inspiration for a singing career that didn’t start until Kelli was in her late 40’s.     Kelli’s musical training started with flute and piano lessons.  Throughout her life she performed in gospel choirs and talent shows.   Her relationship with Bill Corvino and Chris Davis-Shannon began while performing in a series of tributes to female jazz singers in 2010 and they haven’t looked back.

Christopher Davis-Shannon | Bass

Christopher Davis-Shannon's music is the essence of honest simplicity.  Steeped strongly in the piedmont and delta finger-style blues traditions,   his performances bring you back to a time of juke joints and smoky blues clubs of the early 20th century south.  A modern vagabond he has toured the country as a performer the past 3 years, performing from Las Vegas to New Orleans and throughout the South. Davis-Shannon performs a mix of blues and jazz standards, traditional spirituals and his own originals which are steeped in the age old styles he holds close to his heart. His intricate guitar work and plaintive vocals are infused with soulfulness which cannot be faked, and a respect for his predecessors which is rarely equaled.
