“If creativity could be individually rebellious and a voice of the people, then Kelli Owens Hutton understood the assignment. ‘Soccer Trophy’, albeit a passion project, happened to find this intersection and more.”
– Sound & Fury
"This is the soundtrack of our lives!"
– Chicago Mom
Kelli Owens Hutton made a record called Soccer Trophy and in the process created a genre called MomCore.
Soccer Trophy is brutal truth. Two minute guitar driven rock and roll songs about children, middle-age, marriage and all the shit. It’s also funny, revealing and moving.
Kelli partnered with Grammy-nominated (in children’s music, but still...) producer Liam Davis. They made the record in her Chicago home studio, aka the laundry room. A multi-instrumentalist Kelli played every instrument except the drums. Ok, she played bass on like half the songs too.
A Berklee College Of Music grad and major-label wash out (Atlantic records but who’s counting) Kelli took a long time off making music to raise her kids. They are a pain in the ass but she loves them anyway. The Dog of course comes first. Somewhere in there is also her husband.
The second single “Shut Up” will be released September 19, 2024 and the full record will be released in 2025.
