Bio

Kelley Mak's music is a music for our times. Influenced by Hip Hop to Folk and Rock, Blues, Reggae, Soul, and R&B, the 26 year old brings elevated style and sultry voiced emotion to the stage. Known for her dynamic appeal, musical sincerity and capturing stage presence, Kelley Mak devotes herself to be a positive figure through truth and substance. As a talented songwriter, she aspires to take it to the next level, and as an artist, she strives to push it to the limit. Through inspirational flows, political views, and melodic love tunes, Kelley Mak reaches into her soul to create a cultural togetherness and a diversity of followers.

Kelley Mak was born Kelley Mackenzie Conner in January of 1981, hence came the childhood nickname "Kelley Mak". Growing up, Kelley suffered through the abusive relationship of her mother and father. Being caught in the middle of drug abuse, sexual abuse, and multiple divorces, Kelley's only way out was through pen and pad. She inherited the desire to write from her mother and was noted as early as elementary school, winning awards for short stories and poetry. Published by the age of 15, Kelley excelled in English studies and would dream of one day being a published poet with her very own book. Until one day, she read a poem aloud to a friend who was also a local producer and was convinced to get on the mic.

Life never quite got on the right path, though. Drug abuse took an early toll on the young star's life. But somewhere along the downhill slope of drugs, crime, and institutions, Kelley found a higher power within herself to make a drastic turnaround, changing her life and everyone around her as well. She vowed to create a positive path from there on out, with the goal to influence many who are lost along the way. Years ago, upon asking Kelley Mak how she "became" an MC/singer she would have said, " Actually, it was kind of an accident!" In response to the later quote she now states, " There are no such things as accidents. I realize now that God had everything laid out for me, and he chose for me to lead the life that I've lived so that I can take my turmoil and turn it into positive release and reinforcement. I was given this talent for a reason, and it's so that I can be that voice that saves someone's life, just like music saved mine."
