Kelley Stoddard
Kelley is currently on sabbatical from corporate america after 14 years. I am working on a cd project in Nashville. I hope my next job will be in the music industry. I have been singing for the last 25 years. I am in a vocal jazz ensemble for the last 20 years that performs at Christmas time. We have performed all over the midwest and in 1993 opened for various artists at the Cleveland Playhouse including Mel Torme. We have performed in Chicago the last six years. I have studied with various coaches over the years, but am partial to my last year and a half with Ed Farran, who I am dedicating tonight's performance. He was the one that encouraged me to do what I love and to leave the stress and sometimes non rewarding climate of the corporate world. I went to Bowling Green State University where I was involved in the music community. I sang with a jazz trio for two years in Ohio after college and still continues today singing at church, a million weddings (haha) and with my quartet.
