Of a Feather - Sara Morgan and Kelly Hunt's Dynamic Duo

I have dedicated most of my discretionary time and income tocommunity radio in Kansas City for the past 25 years. One of the perks from that association is to be introduced to and become friends and acquaintances with some amazingtalent. Songwriters Sara Morgan and Kelly Hunt, who individually made their radio debuts with me over ten yearsago, are now creating music and touring together as the duo “Of a Feather.” They joined me in the KKFI studios during a Pledge Drive to perform new music and share their connection with and support of community radio.

Sara Morgan writes and performs poignant, thoughtful, andsometimes hilarious tunes which cast back to the timeless country tradition of the second half of the 20th century. Her themes of love, loss, courage, introspection, and irony are in direct contrast to the current pop-influenced /cross-genre / multi-writer Country Music found on the market today.

Kelly Hunt’s songs hover beyond the constraints of genre,navigating between past and present, old world and new. Self-taught on banjo and guitar, her style is highly original and her voice evokes both her Irish ancestry and her upbringingin the soul-infused Mississippi river delta.

Together, as “Of a Feather” they say they are just wingingit, but it sounds oh so good in your headphones. Enjoy this Radio Mom’s recent visit from two of her favorite lyrical daughters…Of a Feather.
