While Stephen has consistently toured since then billed simply as “Stephen Kellogg", past members of the Sixers have joined him on stage from time to time. In 2013, Kellogg gave a TEDx talk about job satisfaction.[3][4] On February 12, 2016, Stephen released South, West, North, East, which 'Paste Magazine' has called 'a triumph'[5] and 'Blurt Magazine' has declared 'a terrific new album.'[6] Recorded literally “all over the map”, the premise of “South, West, North, East” was to record each section of the album in a different region of the USA, with different co-producers and different groups of musicians. On March 23, 2018, Stephen played at O.A.R.'s "Concert for Dreams" at The Beacon Theatre in New York City alongside O.A.R., Adam Duritz of Counting Crows, Nate Ruess of fun., Robert Randolph, Gavin Degraw, Matt Nathanson and more. Stephen released "Objects In The Mirror" on November 23, 2018. Rolling Stone said "Objects In The Mirror captures the talent, spontaneity, and humanity of Kellogg's songwriting... refreshingly free of pretense and studio polishing" and the sound was "...like John Prine fronting The Heartbreakers" [7] Charity WorkEach year, for the Holiday season, Stephen sells handwritten lyrics to raise money for St Jude's Children's Hospital and other charities close to his heart.[8] In 2015, Stephen was part of the Bedstock lineup, the world’s first in-bed music festival, to raise awareness and funds for MyMusicRx, a program of the Children’s Cancer Association.[9] Performing for the TroopsOne of Stephen’s passions has been visiting military bases to perform for the service men and women serving both domestically and overseas. When an opportunity came for Stephen and his band to serve as “non-hard-core-right-wing, normal people that publicly supported the military,” they jumped on it. “None of us are socially conservative,” Stephen says, “but we have this big respect for the military. There is so much anti-war stuff going on and it feels weird to be fighting a war that people are complaining about. It’s important to question decisions but we wanted to say, the armed forces are not politics.” They toured with Armed Forces Entertainment in 2009 and 2010 to bring “home” to the troops in places like Kuwait, Israel, Bahrain and Ramstein Hospital in Germany. “Playing music and thanking them for their service was probably much more powerful for us,” says Kellogg. “They got a little diversion but it was life changing for us.” [8] In 2010, Stephen Kellogg & the Sixers were named the "Armed Forces Entertainer of the Year." [10] During the summer of 2014, Stephen traveled to Africa and again, to the Middle East to play for troops. Personal lifeStephen grew up in Southern Connecticut and in 1997 began his musical career in Northampton, MA while interning for a local club. A few years later, he married his high school sweetheart and began a well-publicized affection for his role as husband and later, father to their four daughters.[8] DiscographyReleased with "The Sixers"
