CRITICS ARE BEGINNING TO LINE UP BEHIND “GRAVITY”
It’s still early, but here is what the first few critical voices are saying about
“Gravity Loves You”:
Kansas City roots singer Kelley Hunt is equally impressive as a soulful, throaty vocalist and an aggressive, gospelly pianist. She showcases her songwriting prowess on the nicely nuanced “Gravity Loves You,” due Feb. 15. “Deep Old
Love” finds her in a bluesy medium-tempo Bonnie Raitt groove. “I’m Ready” is
a tent-revival piano boogie. “In the End” is a gorgeous gospel benediction.”
The Minneapolis Star-Tribune
“…Hunt delivers her socially charged lyrics with a voice that’s part powerful
gospel yearning and part bawdy soul shouter, with the integrity to make her
music much more intriguing than that of the typical suburban-blues artist.”
Denver’s The Onion
“Kelley Hunt delivers the goods with a voice that grafts passionate blues to
scorching soul – instantly endearing her to all within earshot, as her band
surrounds her in a greasy funk that completes the package and brings you
back for more. “Gravity Loves You” continues this tasty tradition and ups the
ante once again.”
