=0D=0A=Kele Fleming grew up in Vancouver, Nova Scotia, and Trenton, Ontario and began writing poetry as a child. She also sang and played guitar and French horn, but her interest in songwriting grew out of her love of literature. Plaintive, political and poetic, they’re songs that ring with a social conscience.
