The Western Carolinian Tyler Auffhammer Managing Editor Mixing guttural vocals and sick guitar riffs, in- novative bass tunes and areliable and confident slew of drum beats helps ' toform the three-man |) band known as Rory |) Kelly. Lead singer and gui- ) tar master Rory Kelly i) founded the band in 2012 | alongside his dad Mike ' Pops Kelly, drummer, ) and his dirty rock band _ has been steadily gain- } ing momentum since day |) one. Adding the bad bass ) skills of Billy Miller, the ) band released their first , album title (Dont Shake ) My) Family Tree in late ' 2012 under the Rusty _ Knuckles label. Not soon _ after, the band embarked on a tour across the At- lantic in Spain. Embodying the fam- _ ily tree aspect of their z album, the Kellys ena Miller have music in their blood and have grown up rocking it. Rory Kelly, a long- | haired, tattooed rocker | whose throaty vocals | compliment his stellar | guitar skills, remembers | attending his fathers | band practices as a tod- dler. | My dad was my big- | gest influence, said Kelly. I started playing i drums as a kid and when _ Iwas about 10 got into the ' guitar. I played a Nirvana cover at my high school talent show and got a _ great applause. Since then, Kelly has not stopped rocking. _ Originally from Marion, Kelly said he must have _ had about 10 bands by the time he graduated high school. He attended sity afterwards but found With his dream to live on the road playing gigs. Eventually, I decided that I wanted to take my band on the road full- time. Ive been on the Yoad since then; about eleven years, said Kelly. Rory Kellys father Western Carolina Univer- _ the experience competing FEATURES September 13, 2013 B5 Mike Kelly, called Pops, has been on the rock scene since before Rory Kelly was born. Asa member of the Old Bridge Militia, Pops Kellys bands helped found the metal music scene in New Jersey. Bands like Metallica and Megadeth found their way thanks to bands like his. Rory Kelly is a family affair, said Kelly, whose mother acts as the bands manager, booking gigs and keeping their financ- es straight. She gets us what we deserve, said Kelly. Miller, also from Marion, has his musical linage: his grandmother was been inducted in the North Carolina Country Music Hall of Fame. Influenced by bands like Guns n Roses and the Pixies, Miller became a member of a goth indus- trial band called VooDou. After the bands first big show, it was givena record deal and was pre- paring for a nationwide tour. For Miller, this was a dream come true, but family called him home. My dad was sick with cancer, and I had to come home to be with him, said Miller, who values family just as much as the Kellys. In fact, Millers own bass guitar was made by his father, who cut down the tree to build it and carved out the scorpion in the body. Miller became involved with Rory Kelly after a long musical hiatus, but, as Miller said, When you play with a guitar player like Rory, you dont say no. In fact, when Miller began playing with Rory and Pops in 2012 after the band lost its former bass player, he was forced to learn a plethora of new songs and start record- ing the bands first album within weeks. Billy got five days to rehearse and do the first show for us. He had to learn about 40 songs, said Kelly. Luckily, the chemistry Wade Properties, LLC on a 2 BR Apartment! ilovemywcuapartment.com on with Rory Kelly From left to right: Billy Miller, bass; Rory Kelly, vocals and guitar; Mike Kelly, drums was right. Miller had ' toured, and he knew what the music industry was all about. What made me want . him was his energy on stage, his playing ability and his professionalism, said Kelly. Miller feels similarly. Rory has made mea better bass player. Weve been together two years, and it hasnt felt like a job yet, said Miller. Playing in large shows like the Texas Rockfest, where the band had to deal with four tire blow- outs, the flu, a tornado and rain for 16 hours straight, helped to form a bond between the three artists. In fact, the band played eight shows in 10 days despite all of the obstacles. Rory Kelly has also toured in Spain, playing 13 shows in 15 days and gaining a large fan base that bought them out of all of their merchandise. Recently, Rory Kelly | played at Bele Chere in Asheville. With close to 3,700 people watching and the rain coming down, they jammed. Since its release in 2012, the band has been playing from their Fam- ily Tree album, which Miller described as a shmorgishborg. We werent sure what direction we were going, said Miller of the first al- bum, which was released by Rusty Knuckles but was still a self-produced album. Currently, however, the band Rory Kelly is working on its newest album, enlisting the help of producer Jack Mascari to help refine their sound. TMascari] is a re- nowned producer for a lot of bands. Hes got his finger on the pulse for the music industry, said Kelly, who admitted that Mascari is one of the best guitar players hes seen. Kelly said that he is more confident than he has ever felt about an album. Miller said that the new album has more of Photo Submitted aswampy dirtiness to it. As a band, weve dialed | in what we want to sound like. We dont want to rush things at all. We are more comfortable now. Having previewed songs like Black Widow and Hittin the Bot- tom (which is available on YouTube), the songs have a very refined feel but still express the grit that the band has become known for. Kelly said that the three men are all writ- _ ing together now. We didnt get a chance to do that on the last record. The producer is letting it breathe and let- ting it form as an album. Its the first record Ive gotten to put together the real way, said Kelly. Using his two Les Pauls in the studio and - his cobalt v-style Gib- son Explorer for shows, Rory Kelly has taken his humble Black Motntain band to the glass ceiling of the music industry. With confidence, col- laboration and their signature style, the band Rory Kelly is sure to break through the ceil- ing and realize their full potential very soon, if not on their next record. No matter what hap- pens, good or bad, said Kelly, The band is fam- ily. In the next couple of months, while juggling studio time and local gigs, Rory Kelly will play in Georgia, South Caro- lina, Florida, Virginia, New Jersey and Pennsyl- vania. The next time you can find Rory Kelly locally is in Asheville on Sept. 13 at The Social, Sept. 28 at Tall Garys Pub and Oct. 4 at The Shovelhead.
