Peter Kelly is an artist whose music bridges the gaps between pop, rock, and traditional singer/songwriter styles.  He’s a vocalist/guitarist who proves that soulful, confessional, accessible songs still connect when the right artist breathes life into them.  His range of influences varies much like the audience he attracts.  Fans of the Beatles and Billy Joel will appreciate his classic approach to songwriting while being refreshed by the modern presentation influenced by Hozier and Mumford and Sons. “Fear of Landing,” a track featured on Peter’s “Don’t Let Me Be Alone” album, got a thumbs up from acclaimed producer Steve Lillywhite who had a chance listen. Song  He has received praise in many online music publications including Songwriting Magazine. 

“Between his sleek vocals, rhythmic artistry, and storytelling chop, Peter Kelly is a game-changer in the pop community." - Elmore Magazine

“…his voice is so clear, so precise.  And when he hits those high notes, he takes you to heaven with him.  Welcome, Peter Kelly.  Long may you rock.” - Audio Fuzz

     Peter’s career began long before graduating from Berklee College of Music in Boston.  He started performing live at the age of twelve and was sharing the stage with artists like The Coasters, The Spinners, and The Shirelles.  He continued to build his reputation as a young guitarist by performing with different local acts, jazz big bands, and in musical theater productions.  During his time at Berklee, his focus shifted from becoming a guitar virtuoso to being a singer/songwriter.  Peter fronted the New York based band Hemenway who attracted the attention of people like famed Beatles promoter Sid Bernstein and Skip Carlton (father and former manager of Vanessa Carlton).  He later joined a country band called the Roadside Poets which is where he met producer John Campos.

     Peter Kelly and John Campos began working together on what would become his first EP as a solo artist, “Forever, Again.”  Upon it’s release, Roger Z of More Sugar Entertainment and The Working Musician said: “The wit and charm of Forever, Again engages the listener instantly and completely.  The top notch writing, playing and arranging ranks with the best.”  The title track received play on New York's Q104.3 FM and the introspective song “Maybe” was featured in the short film, “Thanks Dad,” which aired on the Starz Cinema Network.  Peter’s songs have since gone on to appear in other films and TV shows like “Party Down South” on CMT.  

     Peter reunited with producer John Campos and began working on new original music in late 2025. His first EP entitled Jekyll and Hyde will be released in the fall of 2026. This “concept” EP will contain two brand new songs along with two animated videos.

     When not writing songs he hopes the world will hear, Peter performs with his band The Wood Vibrations. The Wood Vibrations perform at private events and venues all around the northeastern United States.
