In August, Lady A announced their 2022 tour would be postponed until 2023 in order for Kelley to embark on "a journey to sobriety."
Kelley released the studio version of his new song “As Far As You Could” on Friday, Dec. 23 after sharing a demo of the tune onon Nov. 22 before Thanksgiving. At the time, the musician called the song his “goodbye letter to alcohol,” adding, “This song was very therapeutic to write and I hope it can meet someone where they are.”
“I’m grateful. I finally see the light and am connecting with what life is all about,” he added. “Some days are hard, but the good outweighs those bad moments. There’s some beauty in all this and I’ve had time to reflect, time to get healthy, time to write. I’ve probably written 50 songs this fall, and I feel like all of it was leading to this one song.”
“We were almost afraid that if we put a bunch of vocals on it, that might take away from the pain and the authenticity of that singular vocal,” Kelley said. “Hillary especially felt it was important for me to tell my story, kind of the same way she was able to with ‘Thy Will.’ With their blessing, I’m putting this out, but it will live right alongside everything else we do.”
