Kelley Smith | 2604 Minnesota folk musician Kelley Smith is a guitar picker with an old-timey voice. Raised in the woods by musicians, she always had music in her bones, but it wasn’t until her late 30s that she attached to her guitar and began songwriting. Her first record, “Moon Child,” comes across as a midlife coming-of-age story.
