About Kaeley Stephens
Kaeley is an Americana/Folk singer-songwriter based in Portland, Oregon. Her music has been described as "Animistic Americana" - music that is infused with a deep connection to the natural world. Kaeleys music is written from the soul and uplifts the spirit.
Kaeley recently finished "Paradise," her debut album, produced by longtime friend Scott Fisher (accomplished recording artist and LA producer). Her music is inspired by many of folk/country icons such as Emmy Lou Harris and Bonnie Raitt and also by artists such as Brandi Carlile and Gillian Welch. She has been compared to artists such as the Wailin Jennys and Iris DeMent.
Kaeley feels lucky to have been born and raised in Portland, OR, where, after some years away, she now resides with her husband and three daughters. She teaches music and movement to young children and over the past few years, Kaeley has turned her attention to her own music and enjoys the process of sharing her songs with audiences. Kaeley says, "I write what feels good to sing and expresses feeling for me. I hope my songs elicit emotion for you and makes you want to sing along with me".
