Chapter Two featuring Kelly Dickson

Chapter Two is singer Kelly Dickson and guitarist Werner Kristiansen. Having worked on several projects spanning a variety of musical forays and genres, they reach this inevitable defining point in their own musical chapters. Together, they collaborate to write the material for the grand structure that is Chapter Two.

Basing their songs on their love for all things soulful, funky and pop, Chapter Two’s music is undeniably their own. Subtle powerful vocals and undeniable guitar abilities are the staple of Chapter Two’s sound and live, they are ably backed by an illustrious array of musicians, utilizing the cream of the crop from their own musical pasts to form a behemoth of sound which is rarely heard today. As well as playing their original material Chapter Two will also pay homage to some of the great Funk Divas such as Lyn Collins, Gwen McCrae and Ann Sexton and feature songs from Kelly’s Mamafeelgood set.

Chapter Two have played numerous venues and festivals across Europe including opening up for John Legend at the Dubai Jazz Festival 2009, The Blue Note Milan and Glastonbury. They also held a year long stint as a resident band at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club. Kelly is a petite blonde with a massive voice, best known on the funk scene for her collaboration with the funk band ‘The Players’, an illustrious pedigree of musicians consisting of Steve White, Mick Talbot and Damon Minchella.

Chapter Two delivers a dynamic live show, mixing authentic funk material with originals songs and super-heavy grooves.
