My name is Deby Kelley and I am rapidly moving up the ladder of success. I am from California but presently residing in Pennsylvania.
My passion for singing came at a very young age, I sang and danced most of my younger years. At the age of 11 years old I was introduced to the movie industry. Several of the movies that I was casted in were: The Incredible Shrinking Woman, Bad News Bears, Mommy Dearest and Ghost of Buxley Hall. I was also in several commercials which were sponsored by Tootsie Roll and Coca Cola.
I opened up Small World Dance Studio in Fontana California when I was 19 yrs old. I taught Tap, Jazz, Hawaiian, Tahitian, Baton and Gymnastics and did very well. In 1986 I went to work for Fontana Unified School District as a school bus driver. After my duty as a bus driver I would come and put my dancing shoes on and start my dance classes. I was able to do this while raising my two children along with two foster children.
In March of 2006 I traveled to Nashville to record my first major demo CD. I was signed by AMI Records which is an Indie Label. I then went back later in July to finish the 10 song album.
My first CD titled OPEN ROAD was released earlier this year and is doing very well. It is being played in Australia, Ireland, Japan ,United Kingdom and Europe as well as here in the states. This CD has had two reviews one by International Country Music Database which scored a 3 stars status and the other by Maverick Magazine out of the United Kingdom which was very good as well but with a slight flaw.
At the present time I am a Dj for an internet radio staion called Party Central Radio (www.partycentralradio.com). This has given me the opportunity to build a higher fan base and open a lot of locked doors. I have been Djing now for about 4 months and just love it but my real passion is being on stage performing. I have had the opportunity to open up for several well known artists.
I am a 6th cousin to Pasty Cline and hope that someday I will be able to follow in her foot steps as a well known female artist. In 2008 I will be compiling a group of songs from the beginning of Patsy's career that is not only important to me, but my family and also Patsy's long time fans.
My goal for me right now is to make my way to the Grand Ole Opry and stand center stage with the spirit, heart and souls of the past, present and the future artists. I will not stop until I have reached this goal.
Reba and Patsy Cline
