Kelly Moran

Bio

Over the past decade, New York-based composer and producer Kelly Moran has challenged the piano’s traditional, classically-imposed school of thought with a more contemporary, experimental approach. An accomplished and highly sought-after composer, Moran has collaborated with artists the likes of Oneohtrix Point Never, as well as singer and composer FKA Twigs. She has also composed for classical musician Margaret Leng Tan and worked with other visionary contemporaries like Kelsey Lu and Yves Tumor. As a solo artist, Moran’s critically acclaimed albums, Bloodroot and Ultraviolet, have explored a variety of extended piano techniques like John Cage-inspired prepared piano and exercises in improvisation. Her most recent solo album, Moves in the Field, was released in March of 2024.
