The winner of the Juno Award for Best Jazz Album in 2011, Kellylee has played to packed houses across Canada, in France and the U.S. She has been a featured performer in concerts with international stars such as Tony Bennett and Willie Nelson. JazzTimes Magazine hails her "stunning crystalline voice, both powerful and emotive, a quality that is magnified and multiplied exponentially when you see and hear the magic of her performance». Kellylee's music is frequently showcased on Canadian and international media.
In Kellylee's own words, «I wanted to be a part of something tangible and positive that provided for the daily, basic needs of people. I can understand the desire for clean water. It's simple and easy to grasp. And I felt the passion and pull behind Ryan's desire to help and was inspired by his story and the work of the Foundation. As a mother to little people, it always amazes me how they make their dreams and goals come true by believing its possible and going for it. I saw that in Ryan's story and wanted to help inspire that in others."
Through her international concerts, website and social media feeds, Kellylee will help raise awareness of the Ryan's Well Mission. and promote goodwill for the Ryan's Well Foundation everywhere she goes! We're delighted to welcome her to the Ryan's Well family!

I just wanted to let you know that, yes, it is true, I was hit by lightning two weeks ago. It was an electrifying experience. Yes, it was shocking. Ok, all puns aside, I am alright and getting better and better everyday. Please don't worry. I just may be a little slower for a while but I expect to fully recover with all your prayers and positive thoughts doing all the hard work for me.
I love you. Thank you.
Still here,
Kellylee
Coucou!
J'ai voulu juste vous dire que oui, c'est vrai, j'ai été foudroyée il y a 15 jours. C'était une expérience électrisante . Oui, c'était choquant! Désolée...mais sans blague, je vais bien et ça va aller...ne vous inquiétez pas. Mais je serai beaucoup moins rapide qu'avant pour quelque temps. Et je sais qu'avec tous vos prières et vos pensées, je vais guérir rapidement.
