Folk Singer Kellie Loder Releases Melancholic Single "The Month of May"
Described as, “a multi-genre marvel,” Kellie Loder (they/them) is a JUNO Award nominated singer-songwriter who began their musical journey on the shores of Newfoundland & Labrador, lending to their unmatched songwriting prowess, and distinctive blend of folk, Americana and indie pop influences. Kellie’s signature sound coupled with their magnetic stage presence has earned them notable accolades including, “Songwriter of the Year,” and “Fan’s Choice Entertainer of the Year” at the 2023 East Coast Music Awards, and placed as first-runner-up on Canada’s Got Talent (2022).
Songs need room to breathe. It took Kellie over two years to complete their song, “The Month of May.” The first part was written when they were hurting, and the rest of it was written when they were healed.

Kellie felt that it had an old school, retro feel so they used an old guitar amp from the 50s. They also brought in three gospel-based backup singers to sing choir-like parts and make the song feel as big as it deserves.
For Kellie’s recent releases, these songs encapsulate different types of transitions. Transitions in life and relationships can be beautiful, hard, but necessary.
