Not only has Canadian born Kelly Pettit been able to get his music spread out across 4 continents, but this Japan based musician has achieved this in ways that break the traditional mold of how a band should be heard. On his 4th Album titled FUEL, Kelly showcases exactly what makes him so alluring.
His mass appeal didnt happen over night. Kelly has been slowly accumulating a loyal fan base since his first CD, Life through a Windshield and word of mouth about his music has graduated him to becoming a bona fide contender as a solid songwriter. His newest release FUEL has recently been reaching the masses through fans on Social Networks via the internet. It also won an international Ultimate Band Contest which started with over 2000 bands from all over the world; received great reviews in magazines like Artist Direct, Indie Artists, and the Tokyo music scene; and landed him newspaper and television space. Then, his song Shes Just Like Summer, won track of the month on ABCs Fame Games radio which receives over 4 million listeners. Kellys growing popularity has led him to perform in front of sold out crowds of die hard Japanese fans.

On FUEL, Kelly takes a diverse approach to writing each song but always keeping in mind a feel good, energy driven approach. Having a close relationship and working with Canadian pop rock icons from the 90s ODDS and Kelly Clarksons multi instrumentalist Cory Churko, Kelly took advantage of their understanding of crafting great melodic songs. There are no bells and whistles in this album. Its just solid musicians digging deep into each song to make them something special, says Kelly. The result is a sonic experience described by Kelly as folk rock with a hint of alt-country and melodically driven for car driving.

Influenced largely by Australian bands like Crowded House, songwriter Neil Finn, Things of Stone and Wood, and Australian Paul Kelly, along with North American counterparts The Jayhawks, Barenaked Ladies, and the Counting Crows, Kelly works to define a sound all his own with musicianship and a dedication to each detail of the songwriting process. My influences are quite diverse and you can really hear that in this CD. Whats constant is my attempt to keep the CD happy and upbeat, says Kelly. Tracks like Shes Just Like Summer, Little Imperfections, and World Is Turning sum up that statement clearly while tracks like Buy Now Pay Later and When Youre Alone take a second listen to understand the positive message hidden in the lyrics. As one reviewer wrote, It's clear by listening to FUEL that Kelly is a master singer/songwriter. His soulful tunes and easy vocals will make this CD, and any he comes out with next a "MUST HAVE".

Unfortunately this is not my song "Tempos Modernos" is a great Brazilian singer Lulu Santos. I also write songs, but in Youtube only have a song that is itself "Três Rosas" ... Still has not time to put my music ... I thank the compliment.
