Rock-N-Pole Goddess Kelly Maglia Rides the Lightning with Her First EP Just Enough Rough
LOS ANGELES, CA (Dec 1, 2015) Metal has a new maiden with Kelly Maglia. Kelly not only channels the best of 80s glam metal (think Skid Row and Heart had a love child), but she does it with a Cirque du Soleil twist. Motley Crue may have thrown dollar bills at girls, girls, girls, but Kelly takes the pole back and enters the scene as a new kind of Heavy Metal Goddess: singer, acrobat and musician all at once.
The songstress releases her first EP Just Enough Rough today Tuesday, December 1st, 2015. The EP ranges from feel-good modern hair metal to darker, progressive themes of alienation in modern American suburbia. Four of the EP’s five songs, co-written by Kelly, are her original lyrics and music. EP also features a revved up version of Aerosmith’s “Love in an Elevator” with a raucous video to match.
First single Just Enough Rough music video launches today December 1st with Love in an Elevator music video to follow.
Kelly is set to take the metal world by storm with her high-octane theatrical shows and over-the-top costumes. Kelly’s live shows feature pole dancers, contortionists, and acrobats who light up the stage in Kelly’s original designs.
This past July Kelly rocked the Whisky A Go Go at Battle of the Bands for Cathouse Live. The contest was judged by celebrity Headbanger Riki Rachtman and DJ Will of KNAC. Music Enthusiast Magazine said, “Kelly Maglia uniquely featured a sound that could be affectionately interpreted as the love child of Skid Row and Heart. Propelled by operatic vocals, grooving riffs, and accelerating percussion, Kelly Maglia took the stage by storm with few apologies.” Link to full article here.
