About
Kelly Green is a pianist, vocalist, composer, and educator born in Orlando, Florida in 1989. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Jazz Studies from the University of North Florida and a Master’s in Jazz Piano Performance from William Paterson University. Her albums—including *Life Rearranged* (2017), *Seems* (2024), and *Corner of My Dreams* (2025)—meld original compositions and reimagined standards, and showcase her collaborations with Christian McBride, Steve Wilson, Scott Robinson, George Coleman, and Billy Hart.

Her sound drifts between intimate lyric-driven ballads and bold instrumental arrangements, blending traditional swing and storytelling with post-bop harmonies, string textures, and vocal ensembles. She accompanies herself on piano while singing with huskiness and light, creating a warmly immersive feeling.
