On June 6th, CRASH KELLY frontman / HELIX bassist Sean Kelly opened for Sonny Landreth at Peter's Place in Gravenhurst, Ontario, playing selections from The #1 Classical Guitar Album. A video clip of Kelly playing 'Asturias (Leyenda)' is available below.

As previously reported, Kelly recently ssued the following update:

"It is my great pleasure to announce that CK will be sharing the stage with the legendary THIN LIZZY in Windsor, ON on July 14th!

Anyone who is familiar with CK knows just how special this gig is to me... Lizzy has been a primary inspiration for me as a writer and guitarist. The 2009 Lizzy line-up features Scott Gorham and John Sykes, as well as one of my all-time favourite drummers Tommy Aldridge. While I'l never get a chance to share a pint with Phil Lynott, it will be my great honour to make some music with the keepers of his legacy.

I'm really excited that my good friend James Robertson from Down With Webster will be joining us on bass for this show. James produced my Christmas Guitar album, and also played bass with us on the Gilby Clarke tour in 2008. We're all really excited to have him back for this gig.

Finally, I'd like to wish Allister Thompson good luck with his future musical endeavors... he's just released a solo CD of folk-rock tunes called Shadowlands, so watch for him in and around Toronto. Allister has been trying to leave the band gracefuly for a few years, but I kept pulling him back in, haha!. However, all things must pass, and I'm grateful for his efforts. Take care, dude.

So, while the CK calendar is a little quiet this summer, we'll make one hell of a noise at The Blind Dog Concert Hall in Windsor!"
