Hardly any musician has such a fascinating life story as Michael Patrick Kelly. He was on stage by the time he was 10 days old and quickly became a child star. In the 90s, "Paddy's" popularity increased immensely: with the Kelly Family, he went from being a street musician to a stadium act.
As the band's "music man" and producer, Michael Patrick Kelly wrote a majority of the songs, such as the worldwide hit "An Angel". The overwhelming success paid off in more than 20 million records sold and 48 gold and platinum awards.
In 2004, the charismatic singer-songwriter turned his back on show business and entered a monastery for a six-year quest for meaning. Withdrawn from the public eye, he studies philosophy and theology. He documents his cautious return to music on his solo album 'Ruah', which contains songs he wrote in the monastery. In 2015, his album 'Human' enters the German album charts at number 3 and is accompanied by an extensive European tour. In 2017, Michael Patrick Kelly will be more present than he has been for a long time: he will release a new album on Sony Music, take part in the fourth season of 'Sing meinen Song' (VOX) and
will tour internationally in summer and autumn.
