REVIEWS:
“SENSATIONAL! Kelly Auty and her Wild Women Show were simply spectacular. Kelly was so personable and engaged with the audience from the minute she walked onto the stage. In the first act, Kelly represented the women of song with respect and integrity. In Act two, she belted out the numbers from the 50’s and 60’s with such high energy and passion and brought the audience to their feet at the end of the show in a standing ovation. Her encore led to another standing ovation and great crowd at the show she presented the next day – Saints and Sinners. Kelly is a professional through and through and her quality performance, along with such experienced musicians to back her, combined to deliver a show that was outstanding”
Lizzie Zito, Festival and Events Coordinator (on behalf of Shepparton Arts Festival Inc).
“Kelly possesses a solid gold larynx and must surely be one of the hottest singers on the Australian scene.”
Impress Magazine.
“This lady is hot stuff. She has a sparkling, infectious enjoyment of the music...”
MBAS Newsletter.
"Kelly Auty's Wild Women Show in the Soldiers last night was packed to capacity with an ecstatically appreciative audience. Kelly's knock-um-dead voice and lightening costume changes wowed us all and she received more than one standing ovation for her tribute show to the great female artists over the years"
Jenny Falconer. Goulburn Blues Festival.
“Kelly has a strong, soulful voice. One artist I would crawl over broken glass to hear” Peter Donald, Beat Magazine.
"Wild Women is a CD version of Kelly's brilliant stage tour of the same name. Auty is an icon with a solid fan base..."
David Ellery. The Courier, Ballarat.
"Thank you so much for bringing Kelly to our venue, the show was very well received and loved by all who came."
"This is one hot act not to be missed. "
"Don't be put off by the title ".....Wild Women Show." It's not wild, sort of out there, just joyous, capturing the passion and irresistible song writing and sounds from the greatest female singers of the 20th century."
"Kelly is every bit a woman of the world, grounded in
the history and musicality of these great singers."
"The 4 piece band was brilliant and
that voice.....boy oh boy, just impeccable!"
