PRLog -- The second of three daughters, Price was raised in Queens, New York, in the church. That’s where her musical roots were planted, and tended to, early on. It’s where, as a two-year-old, she began singing in the children’
s choir, where she sang her first solo at three and was fittingly-blessed with the moniker, Little Mahalia, a nickname given to Kellly by the teachers in elementary school after hearing her sing the first time. She’d go on to write her first song at seven and belt out her first solo in the adult choir and sing on her first studio recording all before her 10th birthday. “I grew up in a family full of singers and musicians everybody in my family wrote songs and played one or more instruments, everyone could sing and we are all self taught, no formal lessons or musical education other than what has been past on from one generation to the next”. Price, whose “strict, old school Pentecostal” upbringing restricted her from wearing jewelry, make-up and pants (long skirts were the preference). But like most creative spirits, Price was destined to soar far beyond her point of origin. And so, she has.
