Kelsey Kindall, originally from Hershey, Pennsylvania, and now based in San Francisco, has released four projects on all streaming platforms, earning over 150,000 streams and 75,000 listeners with her unique sound and storytelling.

Her music journey started in church choir and school musicals, where she was always cast as the comedic character. That love for performing led to a full-ride scholarship in musical theater, where she discovered her passion for writing music and plays. After college, she moved to New York to work on her craft, premiering an original show at the Eugene O’Neill Theater and collaborating with playwrights and artists. When the pandemic hit, making music remotely became her creative outlet—and it stuck.

The music behind Kelsey Kindall comes to life through Will Duncan—a Pennsylvania-based producer, graphic designer, photographer, and, honestly, the ultimate go-to for anything Kelsey needs to fill in the gaps. The two met on a dating website in 2020, and while the connection didn’t spark romantically, their creative chemistry was undeniable. They’ve never looked back.

Since then, Kelsey and Will have written dozens of songs together, blending their talents seamlessly and continuing to push each other’s artistry forward. Their collaboration is at the heart of Kelsey’s music, creating a partnership that’s as dynamic as it is productive.

Since moving to San Francisco, Kelsey has performed at venues across the city, headlining at Kilowatt, The Faight, and Hotel Utah, and collaborating with artists like Ariana and the Rose and Niia at iconic spots like Café Du Nord and Swedish American Hall. Her music has been featured in Clout, Flex, and Lock magazines, gaining her even more attention and new fans. On stage, Kelsey brings her theater background to life with dynamic performances, hilarious storytelling between songs, and a connection that invites the audience to share the moment with her. Her shows are full of joy, inspiration, and a sense of celebration.

Kelsey is currently rolling out a 3-part project called The Parties. It kicks off with Goodbye Party (out now), a collection of songs about letting go and moving on. Next up is Afterparty (coming winter 2025), celebrating the highs and the moments when life feels euphoric. Finally, Pityparty (coming fall 2025) explores the realization that even life’s biggest moments can’t fill every void. It’s about embracing the slow, mundane, and consistent parts of life—and finding beauty in them as you grow older.

Kelsey also co-hosts The Oldest Daughter Pod, a podcast where she shares funny and heartfelt stories about her life as the oldest of three sisters.
