RUSTON KELLY'S THE REAL DEAL
2/27/18


Singer/songwriter Ruston Kelly has inked deals with Rounder Records and Triple 8 Management.

"Kelly is the next generation of storytelling folk-rock," proclaims Triple 8s Bruce Kalmick. "It's only a matter of time before he's uttered in the same conversation as Ryan Adams and Jason Isbell. Everyone should pay attention."

Rolling Stone Country's Marissa Moss, discussing Kelly's EP Halloween, spotlighted his "powerful grasp on storytelling gleaned from his love of the Carter Family and Townes Van Zandt.”
