Kelly Flint LIVE at Acoustic Long Island
Kelly Flint – As the sultry voice for the trenchant songs of David Cantor in New York City-based cult faves Dave’s True Story, Kelly made five albums and was the toast of The New York Times, the Kennedy Center, and more. But it became time for her to spread her solo wings, or more appropriately, to Drive All Night. That’s the title of Flint’s first solo album, and what that album’s about is the sum total of the places she has been. In the more complex shapes that Flint’s lyrics conjure in the mind’s eye, and the subtle harmonic twists that keep Drive All Night from becoming strictly an “Americana” album, her coming of age in New York City is apparent. Her involvement in the jazzy sophistication of Dave’s True Story, her immersion in the complicated, urgent, shades-of-gray sensibility that is the experiential dividend of New York life it’s all in this striking new batch of songs. Sometimes the bite is just under the surface, and sometimes it snaps up to nab a piece of your heart. For more, go to www.myspace.com/kellyflint.
