The Just Barelys began in 2000 as a recording project by Stephen Kelly. For the self titled debut Kelly invited a host of collaborators to contribute to individual recorded songs. The resulting record was well received, reaching #20 on Chartattack and #23 on the Earshot (Campus/Community Radio) national charts.
In 2005 Stephen paired with Eleanor King and recorded a new EP titled 'Top' . The songs are simple yet musically peculiar. King plays drums, keyboards, and sings harmonies while (songwriter) Kelly plays banjo, electric guitar, bass guitar, accordion, computer, air-organ, and a variety of original/home-made acoustic and electronic musical instruments. 'Top' stayed at #1 on CKDU FM for 8 weeks and peaked at #25 on national Earshot Chart for the month of March 2006.
For much of 2006 the two were joined by multi-instrumentalist Stephen Evans for a collection of first-time-ever live Just Barelys performances, as if there is no such thing as stage fright.
