Stephen Kellogg Grammy nominated American Singer-Songwriter and AuthorExcited to share my special guest with you!  Stephen Kellogg is a Grammy nominated American singer-songwriter and author who has toured worldwide and been named Armed Forces Entertainer of the Year.  Stephen is a TED-X speaker and has a documentary about his music travels called “Last Man Standing” on Amazon Prime. His new book “Objects in the Mirror: Thoughts on a Perfect Life from an Imperfect Person” is part humor, part memoir and part self-help. Most of all, Stephen Kellogg is a storyteller and connects with his audience in a profound way.Over the last decade, New England native Stephen Kellogg has performed more than 1500 concerts around the world, raised thousands of dollars for causes close to his heart, been named Armed Forces Entertainer of the Year, and penned singles for artists like platinum selling rock band O.A.R and American Idol winner Nick Fradiani. Stephen’s most recent writing work with legendary guitarist Robert Randolph, led to a 2017 Grammy nomination for "Best Contemporary Blues Record." He's also had his songs covered by international major label acts and released ten studio albums of his own yielding hundreds of thousands of ticket and record sales.A father of four and married to his high school sweetheart, filmmaker Peter Harding was so moved by the everyman nature of Kellogg's story that he made a documentary called "Last Man Standing" which went on to become an Amazon exclusive film. In recent years, Kellogg has added authorship and speaking to his resume as well. He delivered a TEDx Talk on job satisfaction, the key note speech for the prestigious photography summit WRKSHP, and was invited to speak to the students at Columbine High School in Littleton, CO on the topics of social justice and 'finding your voice.’ He has appeared as a contributing author in several publications and in 2019, will be publishing his first full length book entitled “Objects in the Mirror: A Storyteller’s Take On What Matters Most.”Kellogg’s newest studio album, “Objects in the Mirror”, was recorded over the course of a single week in Nashville, TN. Produced by Will Hoge and featuring twelve songs that explore American life in 2018, the decision was made to track the band live, keeping the results in tact with minimal overdubs. “I wanted to make an album that sounded and felt like the ones I grew up loving; Bob Seger and Cat Stevens, Tom Petty and Rod Stewart. Emotional records where the songs relate to each other and the lyrics are front and center. That’s my true north.” Kellogg’s emotion has never been in question with one music blogger succinctly describing his music as ‘a beautiful display of—well, his heart.” And as for the lyrics, Counting Crows frontman Adam Duritz can lately be heard singing their praises on his ‘Underwater Sunshine’ podcasts.  While Stephen Kellogg may have remained underneath the radar for some in the mainstream, he has succeeded in building a meaningful career alongside many of the best in the business. He’s sung duets with Sara Bareilles, Josh Ritter, Rosanne Cash, and Pat Monahan of Train and participated in the 2018 “Garden Of Dreams’ concert at the Beacon Theater. His music has found its way onto the Billboard charts and been featured in numerous films and TV shows. Whether performing solo or with a band, Kellogg’s soul and energy fuel one of the most dynamic shows anywhere. “With beautifully written songs and an engaging personality”, The Michigan Daily reports, “Kellogg appears as if he was born on stage, taking the spotlight and using it to his advantage, but never letting go of his connection with the audience.” A master storyteller in his prime, he will spend much of 2020 where he’s always been at home…the road.For more information about Stephen visit:  https://Stephenkellogg.comLearn more about Joyce here: https://joycelogan.com/

You may remember our conversation with Stephen Kellogg from last year about life, family, creativity and music. In that conversation, Stephen spoke about wanting to write a book and get his experience and musings down in a coherent story. Well he did that, and the result is nothing short of incredible. If Mastering Midlife were told in story form, this would be the book. Of course, I would never be asked to sit in and lead sing for the band, Train, but other than that, Stephen’s story is easily relatable. Join us today as we muse over marriage, children, creativity, and creating next chapters.   “Understanding that we are an infinitesimal part of the universe puts things in perspective. The stupid remarks or small errors in judgement that feel cataclysmic to us in the moment should hardly matter when we consider that Earth has existed for 4.5 billion year and our average life is only 79 of them.” – Stephen Kellogg   Today on Mastering Midlife:   How to not overthink and let things be created. Creating for creation’s sake, makes our lives richer. The gifts of forgiveness Heroes are not just for worship, but for examples of what to strive for. Stephen shares his admiration for and learnings from Abraham Lincoln When it works (Singing with Train) and when it doesn’t (Singing with Rosanne Cash) A successful marriage (career) is a choice.     Connect with Stephen: Kellogg Family Store Stephen on Virtual Tour Stephen’s Tedx Talk       Limited Time!
