After the conversation, Kelley and his band will play a 30-minute acoustic set and showcase some of his newest music.
"Strongly inspired by growing up in the Ormond Beach area, these songs invoke fishing on the Tomoka River, playing baseball on fields across the region, spending time at the beach and much more," the Chamber said of Kelley.
Strengthening Kelley's ties to the Ormond Beach area is his father, Ed Kelley, former Ormond Beach mayor and commissioner and Volusia County Council chair.
