Kelly Harland
Long Ago And Far Away, Long Ago And Far Away, Kelly Harland Sings The Music of Jerome Kern

Album US 2008 on Origin Records label
Jazz and Pop (Cool Jazz)

On her second Origin release, vocalist Kelly Harland teams up with the great Bill Mays for a simple and sophisticated collection of Jerome Kern classics. The collaboration between Harland and Mays began when Bill heard one of Kelly's previous albums and became a fan. Kelly had already established a love affair with Bill's playing many years before, so when they met at the Pt. Townsend Jazz Festival they talked about recording together. Bassist/producer Chuck Deardorf rounds out the trio for a dreamlike set of songs perfectly suited to Kelly's mellow tone. Featured songs include "Yesterdays," "The Folks Who Live on the Hill," and "I'm Old-Fashioned." As one of the top studio and background vocalists in Seattle for many years, Kelly made a name for herself playing behind such acts as Ray Charles and Etta James. She toured with many bands and became a seasoned studio singer, contributing to many national albums, singing on hundreds of commercials, as well as recording her own material for major labels Epic and A&M.
