Kelan did his undergraduate work at Colorado State University, graduating with a BA in Music Composition, and a BM in Music Education with a heavy focus on trombone.
Kelan's work is inspired by the world around him. Regularly traveling to new places around the world for new sounds, ideas, and adventures. His musical influences cover a broad spectrum from world folk music to the "classical" and jazz worlds. Four years of playing trombone in a professional ska band, and two years of directing an all-brass polka ensemble provided equally important, and very unique elements to his sound. When he isn't writing music, Kelan can be found on a hike somewhere in the mountains with a camera and tripod in hand. All photos on this website were captured by Kelan with a few exceptions. He is currently based in Edinburgh, Scotland. |
