KELLEY STOLZ

SINGER-SONGWRITER (DETROIT)

Cantante, compositor y músico multiinstrumentalista, Kelley Stoltz es valorado por todos aquellos que saben apreciar una buena canción pop próxima al revival y alejada de la mera repetición de formas. Anclado en los 60, sus discos tienen el espíritu de homenaje musical a una generación desfasada que ya queda cubierta por una fina y atractiva capa de polvo. Mezclando influencias de los Beatles, Beach Boys y The Kinks, los sonidos de Stoltz no son, para nada, anacrónicos. Él mismo se declara único conductor y responsable de sus influjos.


" Singer/songwriter Kelley Stoltz grew up in the Detroit area, but eventually found his way
to San Francisco after taking a detour to New York City, where he worked in the mailroom
at Jeff Buckley's management company. Armed with a four-track recorder and a wealth of
lo-fi pop songs, Stoltz began recording his own material, performing all the parts himself
and drawing comparisons to artists like Brian Wilson and Captain Beefheart. Those songs
caught the ear of Monte Vallier, who helped Stoltz clean up and sweeten the recordings for
release as The Past Was Faster in 1999. After that, Stoltz upgraded to an eight-track and
self-released Antique Glow in a limited quantity of 200 vinyl copies, each one housed in a
different, originally designed sleeve by Stoltz himself. Antique Glow was then picked up by
Jackpine Social Club for wider release in 2003, which both raised his profile and allowed
him to quit his teaching job.
Stoltz found a more permanent home for his music in 2005, when he signed with Sub Pop
and released the Sun Comes Through EP. A full-length album, Below the Branches,
followed in March 2006. Stolz's band toured that summer as the opening act for the
Raconteurs and returned to the studio in 2008 to record his lushest production yet, Circular
Sounds. Two years later, he toured with Echo & the Bunnymen and released another layered
pop album, To Dreamers, which featured his live band on two tracks. His affiliation with
Sub Pop having run its course, Stoltz next spent time behind the scenes as a member of
Sonny & the Sunsets and producing albums for the Mantles and Tim Cohen. He returned in
2013 with an album for Third Man called Double Exposure. In 2015, Stoltz found a new
sponsor in Castle Face Records, the label founded by John Dwyer of Thee Oh Sees. They
released In Triangle Time, a set of songs that blended Stoltz' love of the music of the '60s
and '80s, in early November 2015. That same year he collaborated with Sarah Bethe Nelson
on her record Fast Moving Clouds. His next musical move came as a bit of a surprise to
anyone who didn't know that Stoltz recorded a song-by-song recreation of Echo & the
Bunnymen's Crocodiles album in 2001 or that he once had a Echo cover band with Spiral
Stairs called Crockodials. In 2016, he joined the Bunnymen as a touring guitarist, playing
the songs he grew up loving. That '80s influence became even more evident on Stoltz' next
album for Castle Face, 2017's Que Aura.~ " Sean Westergaard
