Kelly Halliburton

Kelly Michael Halliburton (born January 17, 1971) is an American bassist and drummer. He has been involved in bands including Pierced Arrows, Dead Moon, Detestation, Defiance, and Jenny Don't and the Spurs.

Musical career Kelly Halliburton began his musical career in the late '80s in Portland, Oregon, joining several bands associated with the anarcho-punk scene, including Resist, Defiance, Deprived, and Detestation. His involvement reflected a dissatisfaction with the late-'80s Portland music scene, particularly the fusion of punk with heavy metal and funk metal Despite primarily being a bass player with limited drumming experience, he accepted the offer. Pierced Arrows released two full-length albums and five singles and toured extensively until Fred's health began to decline around 2016.

In an attempt to deviate away from the musical styles of the more hardcore - anarcho punk from his earlier previous projects, Halliburton started P.R.O.B.L.E.M.S. in 2009. Notable members include Dean Johnson (Poison Idea), Everclear percussionist Brian Lehfeldt, Wiper's drummer Sam Henry, Wade Murff, who later drummed in American horror punk band Doyle, and former child actor Jonny P. Jewells.

P.R.O.B.L.E.M.S disbanded when Jewells committed suicide January 1, 2018.

In 2011, Halliburton and partner, Jenny Don't, formed the western band Jenny Don't and the Spurs. They enlisted drummer Sam Henry, originally of the Wipers.

Record labels Consensus Reality: Halliburton founded Consensus Reality, a record label that released records for bands such as, Detestation, Defiance, Resist, and various underground DIY anarcho-punk acts. Halliburton relocated to Germany in 1999, leading to the cessation of Consensus Reality's operation.

In 2010, Kelly Halliburton founded Doomtown Sounds.

Equipment Kelly Halliburton has predominantly played a 1979 Fender Precision Bass. In addition to his Fender Precision Bass, he occasionally incorporates vintage guitars from various countries, including Japan, Brazil (Gianinni), Czechoslovakia (Jolana), and Yugoslavia (Melodija), into his performances.

Personal life On August 21, 2022, Kelly Halliburton and Jenny Don't were married after being together for 13 years. The wedding ceremony was officiated by Jerry A., singer of the Portland Hardcore band Poison Idea.
