Kelsey Hickman

Kelsey’s career as a performer sometimes seems preordained. “She has been singing since she could talk” says her mom. Being born and raised in Sherman, IL by and non musically family her mom always wondered where her talent came from. At 16 she went from high school musicals to being the lead singer of the Midwest band Still Kickn’ with whom she opened for Chris Young, Lady A, Montgomery Gentry, Easton Corbin & Tracy Lawrence. And in 2013, she began her breathtaking journey as a solo artist.

In 2016, Kelsey teamed up with GRAMMY-nominated producer Kent Wells (Dolly Parton, Reba McEntire, Kenny Rogers) and songwriter Bill DiLuigi (grand prize winner of American Songwriter’s lyric contest) for her debut full-length album, Gypsy, but since then, Kelsey has undergone a transformation with her sound.

As her rock ‘n’ roll obsession and country roots caught up with her over the years, she began to embrace this side of herself in her music, giving into her inner rebel spirit. In 2022, Kelsey started working with Don Miggs, who brought a fresh perspective to the table and assisted in reinventing and refining her country rock sound.

Kelsey embodies the true spirit of rock ‘n’ roll while seamlessly blending in a classic country essence. Growing through the grit and grind of being a professional musician, she has honed her craft and created a captivating musical experience that will leave you with exhilarating drum hits to your soul and guitar kicks to your teeth.
