He came to fame as the third-youngest member of the pop- and folk band The Kelly Family, who with over 20 million records sold since the mid-1990s, belonged to the most commercially successful acts in Europe. After years in the public eye Kelly released his debut solo album "In Exile" and shortly thereafter retired to a monastery in France.[2] After six years he returned to the music business in 2011.
