Kelly Hughes Band Christian Concert
Kelly Hughes – Country Grit, Rock Roots, Faith-Fueled Journey
Straight out of the pine-covered hills of North Idaho, Kelly Hughes hit the stage professionally at just 14. By 21, he wasn’t just playing music—he was creating a home for it. He launched “Kelly’s,” a live music venue that quickly became a central hub for artists across the country. With the guidance of a veteran manager and a relentless drive, Kelly ran it for two decades before selling it in 2004. Though it changed names, the stage he built still stands, helping new voices find their spotlight.
That same year marked a turning point. Kelly accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior—a moment that gave new direction to his life and career. He took to the road, bringing his signature blend of country and old-school rock to audiences across the Northwest and Southwest.
Over the years, Kelly’s talent and tenacity have earned him opening slots for legends like George Jones, Vince Gill, Waylon Jennings, Merle Haggard, Blake Shelton, Brad Paisley, and more. Whether he’s tearing through a gritty rock riff, crooning a heartfelt country ballad, or sharing a story from the road, Kelly’s performances are anchored in authenticity, shaped by experience, and guided by faith.
Everything he does, he does to honor God and the gift he’s been given.
Cost: $75 per person, 21 and over only.
(includes full bar-b-q dinner and 1 drink ticket no host wine and beer also available.)
Fundraiser/Concert benefitting Immaculate Heart Retreat Center.
Tickets $75 each or sponsor a table of 6 for $1000.
