Plays together: The Front Porch continues its Save the Music series with an all-in-the-family edition featuring John and Chris Kelly. The father-son team appeared together on John’s recent release In Between, a collection of rock and folk songs that reflect on social justice issues as well as the importance of family bonds. Chris’ six-member, alt-rock band 14 Stories formed in 2017, and broke through on local high school stages before gigging at the Southern and the Pavilion. Proceeds will benefit the Heather Heyer Foundation.
