Quotes & Reviews
“Kellie Lin Knott’s Comfortable instantly enchanted me. Over deft, breezy instrumentation, her vocals sound splendidly assured (when they don’t sound positively alluring), and such songs as “Innuendo,” “In Africa,” “Salt and Sand,” and “Pearl” showcase lyrics of considerable wit,
in more than one sense of that word, and no little wisdom. More succinctly: wow!”

Bio
Describing the music of midwestern songwriter/performer Kellie Lin Knott often leads listeners to interesting comparisions. Fans have suggested that her voice is a ‘cross between Alanis Morissette’s contraltro bravada and Billie Holiday’s subtle, sexy delivery’, that her harmonic, rhythmic and lyrical sensibilities are purely ‘Joni Mitchell’, and that her jazz-influenced, groove driven acoustic guitar parts are fueled with an early Ani Difranco-like energy.
