Stephen Kellogg and The Sixers

Show Description

"There's something really exciting, and almost cinematic, about the act of walking away. It's that feeling of renewal and hope that Stephen Kellogg and the Sixers brilliantly capture with their music."
- Aspen Daily Newsvoice



Rock songwriter Stephen Kellogg explores the thorny geography of modern relationships with uncommon insight an understanding. His lyrics use ordinary language, but every song contains a flash of insight or a turn of phrase that will jolt listeners into an altered state. Stephen Kellogg & The Sixers may be the hardest working rock band in the land building a solid fan base and a growing national buzz the old fashion way, by logging thousands of miles on the road. With the release of their eponymous major label debut for Foundation/Universal they're ready to stake their claim to greatness with 11 original tunes showcasing Kellogg's expert songwriting and the skillfully understated backing of The Sixers. "Stephen Kellogg & The Sixers" is a rock album, but it's a rock album that replaces attitude with sincerity. Imagine The Band performing vignettes of modern life, Van Morrison with better articulation or Elvis Costello without the vitriol, with The Sixers – Keith 'Kit' Karlson (bass and keyboards) and Brian 'Boots' Factor (drums) – doing most of the heavy lifting, supplying the kind of muscular, sympathetic support that comes from long hours on the road and a common sense of purpose.
