“Salt Lake City native Anna Kaelin, who is living in Nashville and pursuing a country music career, appreciates the genuine nature of the [country] genre. "The thing I like about country music is that it’s music that really reflects people’s lives.”," Kaelin said. "As such, I feel it views life in a real way." It can also be very raw. With all the realities of everyday life, it's hard to expect the genre to be clean across the charts, Kaelin says. "I think human curiosity unfortunately kind of thrives on the bad or negative things," Kaelin said. "Sometimes people will go for that shock value, because just seeing people living happily can be boring. … It's unfortunate. It should be the other way around."”

Anna Kaelin has had to face her own struggles as a singer/songwriter. She's had to find her own road, dive into the unknown and search deeply for who she is and what she has to share with the rest of the world. ... As she's faced different obstacles, Kaelin has discovered just how much her heart is in music and how much she has to offer to the world. She keeps moving forward, paving her unique road. Her self-titled album, "Anna Kaelin," comes out today, July 2, on iTunes, and her CD release concert is July 23 at the Sandy Amphitheater.”
