From The Desk of Donald Blackfox 

Spirit Wind Records is honored & pleased to welcome Kelly Montijo Fink to our family

Kelly Montijo (pronounced Mont –ee –ho) Fink, singer /“song catcher”

Kelly (Mexican, Apache, & Spanish) was born in California now but now resides in the Midwest.  She has been singing for as long as she can remember & has performed everything from musical theater, Italian opera, and madrigal arrangements, to mariachi music & Native drum songs.

Kelly considers herself a “song catcher” rather than a song writer.  She rarely sits down to write a song, but rather observes , hears, and sees truth & then allows the words and melodies flow from there. 

For several years, Kelly spent hours every week singing her prayers for the tribes of North America.  It was out of this time that the songs of her debut CD (“Heartbeat of the Creator”) were born.  A famous Guatemalan musician, Ricardo Arjona, once said, “Songs are born in absolute solitude, but they find accomplices”.  Indeed this was the case, as Kelly was honored with a 2008 Native American Music nomination in the gospel / inspirational category. 

Kelly is currently working on her second CD to be titled “Songs of War and Victory – overcoming the battles we face” where she tackles such themes as identity, complacency, restoration, healing, & overcoming adverse circumstance.&nbs p; She is also collaborating with Jan Michael Looking Wolf on an upcoming project. 

Kelly is a part time Spanish professor at Cornell College & Kirkwood Community College.  She is married and has two children. 

Kelly  brings with her a new passion & energy that will only enhance our commitment to bring the very best to our record label. We look forward to a long lasting relationship with Kelly.

Respectfully
