I am a guitarist and composer residing in beautiful Portland, OR. I grew up in the Washington DC area but moved out west for the spirit of adventure. I received my bachelor of arts in classical guitar performance form Southern Oregon University in 2010 where I studied under the world class guitarist David Rogers. I compose and perform in a variety of popular music styles in both ensemble and solo settings. I am available for all events and for both individual and group instruction with competitive rates.
Improvisation #1 in A minor 2/23/20
Welcome to the Weekly Loop Log!
This blog is going to chronicle the weekly loop pedal improvisations created by David “Élan” Kelley. These are made using multiple instruments spontaneously in real time, nothing rehearsed or planned. There may be some mistakes but its all good! Instruments include a Yamaha Compass Series acoustic electric guitar, a Godin Freeway series electric guitar, an Ibanez Mikro electric bass guitar, a Moozika electric kalimba, and a Hammond H-44 Pro melodion. Pedals include the Zoom G1-on multi-effect pedal and BOSS RC-300 Loopstation.
