Born in Dublin in 1977 as the third youngest of 12 children to musically gifted parents, Michael Patrick Kelly was destined to become a star. At the age of seven, Paddy became the front man of the Kelly Family and a heartthrob for girls. He also composed and sang most of the Kelly Family's hits. However, this pressure was also a huge burden, and so he fled to a monastery in 2004. In 2010, he finally returned to the music world. He started with a series of Christian concerts. In 2015, he released the album "Human" under his full name, Michael Patrick Kelly, which entered the German charts at number 3. "Ruah" followed in 2016 and "iD" a year later. On October 31, Michael Patrick Kelly released his new album "Traces." With "TRACES," Michael Patrick Kelly opens a new chapter—both musically and thematically. The album sets true stories of courage, healing, and hope to music, painting a deeply moving picture of humanity. The charismatic singer-songwriter with his unmistakable 4-octave voice combines pop, rock, and folk to create an intelligent genre crossover with elements of indie, Latin, and gospel. His album "TRACES" features high-profile collaborations with star tenor Jonas Kaufmann, the London Community Gospel Choir, and arranger Will Malone. Produced at the legendary Air Studios in London and Hansa Studios in Berlin, "TRACES" seamlessly follows on from the great success of its predecessor "B•O•A•T•S": five top 5 radio hits, over 400 million streams and half a million concertgoers.
