It will be a truly magical journey through 20 years of music history with a selection of the 20 most popular songs of the duo – whether as solo artists or with the ensembles "Elfenthal", "The Kelly Family" or "Kingdom of Navarre". They will also present four new songs, including their new single and a new "Best Of" album.
An emotional rollercoaster, accompanied by enchanting, harmonious duets and instruments such as Celtic harp, cello, piano, guitars, and world music percussion. Laughter, tears ... an unforgettable experience for all who long for nostalgia. Maite and John look back on a long shared history.
They have been friends since childhood; when Maite was 6 years old, she told John (14) that she would marry him one day. 15 years later, this became a reality. In the meantime, Maite had become a renowned soprano and classical guitarist, while John celebrated successes with "The Kelly Family". After 28 years of shared personal and professional life, they continue to share their affection with the audience through their music.
MAITE ITOIZ: The soprano, producer, and composer from Navarre, Maite Itoiz, completed her dual careers as an opera singer and classical guitarist with several awards. Since 2006, she has been leading ELFENTHAL, a symphonic rock formation that she founded together with her husband, singer John Kelly. "Tales from the Secret Forest," her first album with original compositions, remained in the German Media Control Charts for several weeks.
JOHN KELLY: Co-founder of "The Kelly Family" and co-founder of the symphonic rock band "Elfenthal". In the first 8 years of the Kelly Family, John Kelly was the front singer of the band with top No. 1 hits like "Who'll come with me" or "The Last Rose of Summer". He sold over 25 million albums and over 2 million videos, and achieved millions of streams on all platforms. In 2017, John Kelly celebrated a triumphant comeback with the Kelly Family. Several major tours followed until 2022, featuring over 700,000 concert visitors.
