Just 3 months after claiming the top prize in www.ubl.com’s The Ultimate Band contest, Nanaimo born musician turned Japanese pop star, Kelly Pettit, is coming home to say thank you to his home town supporters.

Shannon Ambrose - The Portal Magazine.
With a very pleasing mix of pop and country, Kelly’s debut CD is a treasure and an excellent addition to any CD collection. Featuring collaborations with a host of talented artists, Fuel is a solid collection of 15 tracks... Mark Clay - Singer/Songwriter/ NSCA member
...the sound is very professional, slick and full. Listening in good headphones promises the listener a world of sounds. Cleverly arranged guitar, mandolin, harmonica and violin are just a few of the many instruments used throughout the journey of these songs. This all compliments the lyrics and vocals which come together with very good writing to make this one of my favorite cds of all time... Ken Morrison - Fame Games Radio music reviewer
02-Aug-08: I´m happy to say that on the strength of what I´ve heard on this show, I now have Kelly Pettit´s album, and I´ve been listening to it in the car all week. Largely because it´s as good as any album I´ve bought in a long time. Nuff said. Mickey Carnell -Fame Games Radio music reviewer
Love this song, Love your voice, Love you, your music really is so much better than some of the crap out there in the charts today! Fan - myspace comments
Great! I love Kelly`s easy listening style of music. What a great sound. This was the first Kelly Pettit song I ever heard. Fuel is now one of my favorite CDs of all time. Cory Churko - Multi Instrmtlist/songwriter/producer (performs with Shania Twain, Kelly Clarkson etc)
Wow! I thought the last album was great. Kelly's music keeps getting better and better. Some very thoughtful and clever lyrics and catchy melodies. Lots of variety in tune selection. My favorite is Little Imperfections. This album went directly in my itunes collection. 15 songs? Amazing! Click here for more reviews
