Kelvin Wetherell
Kelvin’s songs lean into life in all its battered glory. His poetic, image-rich lyrics riff on self-awareness and our commonality in a world distracted. Coupled with music borne of a love for rock ‘n’ roll, roots, reggae and old school R&B, the groove that accompanies the message is deep and wide. “Raw,” “soulful,” and “beautiful” are the words most often used to describe his sound. Kelvin’s voice is timeless, inspired by such greats as Sam Cooke, Nick Cave, Bob Marley and Johnny Cash. His guitar style blends acoustic fingerpicking, percussive, tribal elements and heavy, vintage fuzz.
