Event information

It's taken a while as Nori and I have been working on a concert for WIND here in Oundle for some years so it's very exciting that this is now a reality.

WIND will play a Little Ember Session at last...

Tickets are £15 in advance and £17.50 on the Door. And, £4.50 for Under 18's.

"Refreshing"is the word most often used to describe the music of WIND.

WIND consistsof husband and wife, Nori & Barbie Kelley, with backing vocalist Shane Faux-Dugan.

To date, WIND has released 19 albums and EPs. In 2020 they began to receive
airplay on various “prog-rock” radio shows in the UK & US, resulting in a live slot
on the "Prog & Rock Virtual Festival" on May 23, which attracted nearly 17,000
listeners.

They have done live concerts on both “The Prog & Rock Show” & “Kiss
That Prog” during UK tours in ’22, ‘23 & ’24 as well as several club shows.
WIND’s brand new Christmas EP, entitled “A Night To Remember,” was released
on October 18, 2024.

Born in Japan, but raised in Gadsden, Alabama from age 9, Nori Kelley is a
veteran session musician who has worked with Jon Anderson (Yes), Dave Hope
(Kansas), the late Jon Camp (Renaissance), Will McFarlane (Muscle Shoals
Swampers / Bonnie Raitt), John Sussewell (Diana Ross, Alvin Lee, Bob Dylan), the
Chi-Lites and others. CCM magazine once compared his guitar playing to both
Mark Knopfler and Phil Keaggy.

Mel Bay Publications released two of Nori’s
guitar teaching projects internationally, both of which were best sellers. He also
produced a number of albums in Japan from 1999-2016. Nori has produced &
engineered nearly 100 album projects in all, and has played on well over a
thousand recordings.

Barbie Kelley hails from the Wilmington, Delaware area and comes from a
large musical family. She began playing the flute at age 9, and now plays percussion
and guitar as well. She has played & sung on hundreds of recording sessions. Her
voice has a pleasant, almost Celtic-like quality, and has been compared by some to
Natalie Merchant and Annie Haslam of Renaissance.

Audiences love her flute playing, and WIND’s flute and guitar combination achieves nice results. Barbie has written a musical with Nori called “No Love, No Peace - The Musical, “ geared toward middle/junior high school students, dealing with issues such as bullying & suicide.

It was debuted at AAST High School in Myrtle Beach, SC in 2017 and
“WIND & Friends” released the musical soundtrack in 2018. Nori & Barbie hope
to see it performed in more schools in the near future.

Shane Faux-Dugan (pron. Fox-Doogan) is WIND’s newest member, joining
the group on backing vocals in 2023. Shane has toured with the band in the UK
and Japan, as well as a fall 2024 mini-tour to New York & Massachusetts. The new
EP is his first appearance on a WIND project as well as his recording debut.

WIND’s music is an original mixture of prog rock, classic rock and folk styles,
influenced by British artists like Pink Floyd, Mark Knopfler, Yes & Renaissance, as
well as North American artists like Bruce Cockburn & Tom Petty.

Their new EP is called “A Night To Remember,” and was released on October
15, 2024. “A Night To Remember” contains seven songs - two progressive
rock original songs and four traditional Christmas songs, with one of the originals
being the 12-minute prog-rock epic title track.

WIND’s music continues to be broadcast on progressive rock radio shows in the
U.K., Canada and the U.S. They will be heading to Japan in May 2025 for a 12-date
tour, back to the UK in October for their fourth tour as well as numerous dates
in the US throughout the year.

Please note that there is no disabled access to the area where the performance takes place. There is a small staircase up to the concert room.
