The Kelly Bell Band

Electrifying Blues with a Genre-Bending Twist

Voted Best Blues Band in the Mid-Atlantic Region for 12 Years Running

The Kelly Bell Band, celebrated as Baltimore’s top Blues band for over a decade, is known for their electrifying performances that blend Blues with a dynamic fusion of Soul, Funk, Hip-Hop, and Rock. Originally formed as the backing band for rock legend Bo Diddley, KBB has since toured the world, captivating audiences in Japan, Spain, Italy, and beyond. With accolades including two Maryland Music Awards and a reputation as the Mid-Atlantic’s Best Blues Band for 12 consecutive years, they’ve become a staple of the region's music scene.

Their debut album, Phat Blues Music, remains one of the best-selling records in the Mid-Atlantic, and their live shows are renowned for their high energy, audience interaction, and a strong sense of community. Led by the charismatic Kelly Bell—also known as ‘The Bluesman’—the band is committed to both their craft and their fans, making every show an unforgettable experience.
