| | Kelley Deal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26) |
 | | Kelley's sister Kim made the honest mistake of telling a Spin reporter all about the situation on the eve of an intervention orchestrated by the Deal family last year, and Kelley is just as disarmingly candid, remarkably down to earth, and thoroughly engaging, even when conversation turns to what she calls her "12-step thingy." |
 | | Anyway, Kelley's had other important things to focus on, like writing, producing, playing on, and then setting up her own label for one of the most pleasant surprises so far this year: the Kelley Deal 6000's Go to the Sugar Altar (Nice). |
 | | Kelley focused that energy and desire into an 11-track debut that has its roots in the skewed, noisy pop of the Breeders but branches out in ways that few would have reason to expect from someone who didn't know how to play guitar five years ago. |
