Kelley Deal

Bio

In addition to being a founding member of rock band The Breeders (alongside her twin sister Kim) and a current member of R.Ring (who will release their new record, Ignite the Rest, next spring), Kelley Deal is a prolific creator. In 2008 she released a book, Bags That Rock: Knitting on the Road with Kelley Deal, and she currently sells her handmade scarves (along with other items) via Kelleydeal.com.

When asked for a “fact” about herself, Deal provided the following: “Steve Albini once told me that I am basically the answer to a trivia question. Name a person who 1) Has a platinum record 2) Is a published author 3) Has a TOP SECRET government clearance (now inactive) and 4) Has been arrested for a felony. The answer? Kelley Deal.”
