Shortly after being in the band, Kellee won the Miss America Pageant in her home town. This led to several recording contract offers. After considering Motown, she signed to Gene Russell's Black Jazz Records label. Here she cut an album called 'Maiden Voyage', which was based around the Herbie Hancock tune. Following this release, Black Jazz decided to become a production company, so Russell signed Kellee to Shadybrook Records. Here Kellee recorded one album called 'Kellee' in 1976.
