Kelly started her music career in 1992 as a member of the dance act N-Trance, lending her vocals to "Set You Free" which originally was not a success. Following several re-releases, the song stormed the UK charts in January 1995.
That same year, Kelly launched her solo career with the song "Brighter Day" which was just shy of reaching the UK top 40. In 1997, she returned to N-Trance for their cover version of the Rod Stewart hit "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy" which stormed the UK top 10. She would continue to sing on their hits which included a covers of the Guns N' Roses hit "Paradise City" and the Jackson 5 hit "Shake Ya Body".
In 2001, she appeared on Flip 'N' Fill's "True Love Never Dies" which when re-released in 2002, became a top 10 hit. In 2002, she released a solo album, called All Clubbed Up, which featured her most well-known work including a cover version of Taylor Dayne's "Tell It To My Heart", which went top 10 in October 2002, as well as a new version of "Heart of Gold", a song she originally recorded with Force & Styles back in 1998.
In 2004, Kelly reached the UK top 15 with a cover version of Donna Summer's hit "This Time I Know It's For Real". Her new single "Nobody like You" is due for release in May 2006.
