 Multi-instrumentalist
Kelsey has been known to blend many musical genres with fervor
and grace. When he hits the stage to perform, he plays every inch
of his guitar and makes it sing, soar, pop and ping--by strumming
it, pounding it and pulling every part of it or anything else
an arm's length or foot kick away. He has created a style that
he described best as "progressive-aggressive acoustic guitar,"
and he has only begun to make a first impression.

 Acoustic
Endeavors, a 5-piece acoustic bluegrass ensemble from Roanoke,
Virginia, was formed in 1992 when Warren Amberson and Kelly Green
decided they needed a performing vehicle for their original material.
The band is composed of Warren on bass, mandolin and vocals, Kelly
on guitar and vocals, Dewey Peters on guitar, John Lawless on
banjo and vocals, and Billy Hurt on fiddle. All are recognized
and established in the bluegrass world. Their latest CD entitled,
“On a Farm” has been described by Dave Higgs of WPLN-FM
in Nashville, TN as a “Fabulous melding of styles; sharp,
hard-hitting songwriting; creative and mesmerizing arrangements;
crisp, clear and clean instrumental wizardry and an indisputably
wholly unique sound”.
