"I'm Confessin' (That I Love You)" is a great old standard. You're listening to a vocalese of a Lester Young solo of that great tune. Expanded lyrics written by Kelly.
Any one in the Seattle area interested in voice lessons with Kelly, please send an email through this site (see contact tab above). If you are a soon to be college student and singer - consider Green River Community College in Auburn, WA where Kelly is now directing the jazz choir, Concert Choir, and teaching various other music classes.

JazzTimes Magazine, March 2008 issue: "Kelly Eisenhour boasts a seductive voice that is at once cognac smooth and espresso-rich. "Eisenhour is a sublime standards bearer." "Another member of the too-large club of superior jazz vocalists deserving of wide-spread popularity."
Downbeat Magazine, December 2007 issue gives Kelly's album 3 1/2 stars! "Eisenhour occasionally opts for conversational phrasing that places emphasis on the lyrics and her glowing vocals. . ." Mark Murph, the reviewer also says that certain tracks "resonate with subtle modern r&b sensibilities. . ." and "Eisenhour also shines on the more straight ahead material."
Terrific voice, clear, sharp, arresting. . . --- Tom Hull, writer for The Village Voice

"That Kelly gal can sing." --Arturo Gomez, Music Director jazz89KUVO Denver
The disc was easy to add to our playlist. I was pleased to see your song selections, some old school but not the 100,000 version of Autumn Leaves. The arrangements of several standards (I Didn't Know..., My Man's..., I Only have Eyes..., Soul Eyes) were refreshingly original and your vocal style fit beautifully. You sound relaxed and very much in the moment. These days that's more of a rarity then you might think. That's one of the main reasons your disc was a no brainer to add to our rotation. Russ Haines Jazz/World Music Director WWSP 90fm
"Kelly Eisenhour is a prolific vocalist. . .she proves to be a seasoned professional with plenty of talent to handle any piece that comes her way." -Keith "MuzikMan" Hannaleck, Album Reviews
