In February of 2001, news that there would be a benefit show at Sutton High School was released to the students.  Anxious to get involved in a band, Andy Chase approached Zac Given to ask if he'd like to play at the show.  Zac told Andy that he had already made plans to play with Matt Cox and Noah Guntharp, and that he was welcome to come to practice.

The first practice was held in Matt's basement, and the potential band mates got to know each other and work on some cover songs, as well as some original material.  Andy, Zac, and Matt found themselves unable to work productively with Noah, so they decided to go on as a trio.  Poking fun at the situation, the group called themselves Noah's Nitelite.

The day of April 27 approached and Noah's Nitelite rocked forth like never before, quickly becoming the highlight of the evening.  After playing a well-received show (featuring the original songs Flirt, Everything and Back, and Blockhead), Matt, Zac, and Andy decided that they'd like to officially be a band and continue practicing and writing.

Noah's Nitelite continued to play shows, but changed their name after a short time (as they no longer wanted to have a gimmick name).  Much debate was held over the issue of the new name, and finally Kelley Square was agreed upon.  For the rest of 2001 and the early stages of 2002, thirteen original songs were composed by Kelley Square, making them feel ready to record their first album.

Recording for Blockhead began in February of 2002 and was quickly wrapped up in the same month.  It was engineered, mixed, and mastered by Dave Nelson at his home studio in Grafton, MA.  It was released shortly thereafter and is still available.

Some more shows were played, but the band felt some drifting effects by the summer of 2002.  Andy and Zac began practicing with Garret Roosa and Tim Johnson.  They decided that the band would work better as this group of four, and Matt left the band in October of 2002.  The first show of the "new and improved" Kelley Square was played at a battle of the bands in Woonsocket, RI.  The competition was won by Kelley Square, a positive sign for the future of the new group.

Several shows have been played by Kelley Square since then, including a major show at the Worcester Palladium.  Currently, Kelley Square is recording a new full-length album, which is yet to earn a title.  The album will feature fifteen tracks, including new material as well as reprises of old songs (with new parts).  The CD does not have a name yet, and its projected release date is in the early summer.
