Leslie Ellis - Grammy® Award winning vocalist Leslie Ellis teamed up with Kelly 5 years ago when she moved to Nashville. Together they have taken their show around the US and to Norway. Leslie offers is a uniquely feminine perspective in contrast to Kelly. Most notably, when she sings the Dottie West part in the duet recorded with Kenny Rogers. In the intro to the song Kelly jokes, “It’s nice to have her in the show, it’s just not pretty when I do the girl part.” Leslie has sung with many artists including Celine Dion (“My Heart will Go On”) and Thomas Dolby. Last year her self penned “The Flyer Song” was adopted by the US Navy and made into a video as a tribute to the troops and their families. |
