Hello Kelly Signs with 7 Spin

Posted by Kevan Breitinger Mar 6, 2007

Hello Kelly just wrapped up a 12 date Canadian tour supporting their new EP, "Green Things Grow," which was released in January of 2007. The EP will help set up the band for their first full-length album, which will be released in the fall of 2007.

“Hello Kelly is the quintessential rock band,” states Peter Khosla, president of 7 Spin Music. “From their stellar songwriting to their amazing live show, Hello Kelly is the complete package. We are thrilled that they are a part of the 7 Spin family.”

No strangers to the road, Hello Kelly has been touring throughout Canada and the US for the past two and a half years, sharing the stage with some of the biggest names in Christian music – Superchick, Rebecca St. James, John Reuben, Kids In The Way, and Starfield, just to name a few. Over that time the band has played shows from Alberta to Nova Scotia as well as well as in the US as part of the “Rock Hop & Roll Tour” which took place in the Fall of 2006.

In addition, the band has also seen great radio support with three songs from their previous EP, "The Modern Day Fades Away" reaching #1 at Christian radio in Canada. Hello Kelly has sold over 12,000 copies of their EP independently as well as through Canadian Christian retail. All songs from Green Things Grow and Modern Day Fades Away are available on iTunes and all other digital music services globally.

Francois Goudreault Jr., Hello Kelly’s lead singer/guitarist and songwriter, says this about Hello Kelly’s goal: "I remember when rock and roll was something that people talked about. I remember my parents filling my ears with Van Halen, The Scorpions, and Triumph - when conversations around the barbeque were about an artist's latest guitar effect, not an artist's latest clothing line. I want people to remember Hello Kelly like that."
