Vance Kelly (born January 24, 1954, Chicago) is a soul-blues singer and guitarist, who has performed regularly at various music venues in the Chicago area, chief among them the 1815, Checkerboard Lounge, Rosa's Lounge, Kingston Mines, Buddy Guy's Legends, and B.L.U.E.S. A long-time staple of the Chicago blues scene, Vance "Guitar" Kelly has wowed critics and fellow musicians for twenty-five years, but has somehow managed to slip beneath the radar of mainstream blues music fans. Bluebird is Kelly's sixth studio album, and a sure bet for increasing the audience of the Living Blues Award-winning guitarist. A collection of original soul-blues songs, Bluebird also features covers of Isaac Haye's "Little Bluebird" and Roosevelt Sykes' "Driving Wheel" and includes Vance's daughter Vivian guest-starring on vocals.

After releasing 2018’s excellent Hiding Place, Tori Kelly promised that we wouldn’t have to wait too long for new music. And she was true to her word. The 26-year-old released a deeply personal, acoustic ballad called “Change Your Mind” in January, and now follows it up with an equally intimate and heartfelt tune called “Sorry Would Go A Long Way.” Like “Change Your Mind,” the song was produced by Jimmy Napes. He knows that restraint is essential when working with a powerful vocalist (see his many collaborations with Sam Smith) and works similar magic with Tori.
