It was fascinating to see how my ideas could be able to translate in such a setting was fascinating,” said Stelling. Harper claims he immediately recognized the same spirit as Stelling’s masterful fingerpicking and soulful voice and soon signed up to record Best of Luck. Ben Harper recruited an all-star rhythm section for the recording session which included guitarist Jimmy Paxson (Stevie Nicks, Dixie Chicks) and bassist Mike Valerio (Randy Newman, LA Philharmonic) to lend the versatility and finesse Stelling’s soulful playing. “I really believe this record is the intersection where folk and soul meet,” said Harper.

In the glowing assessment, PopMatters wrote of Itinerant Arias, “over the course of four albums Stelling has been working to perfect the sound of his perception of the world as complex as it is. With Itinerant Arias Stelling makes an opportune and bold move into the role of a bandleader and master historian of our time.” The album name, Stelling said he chose Itinerant Arias due to the fact that “these songs share the same origins, but no sense of location. As if they were found objects, heard stories, lost tunes… that have no true home, but all coming from the same sound.” The album Itinerant Arias came out on May 5, 2017 via AntiRecords.

Stelling’s debut album, which was released by self on February 21st of 2012. The album Songs from Praise as well as Scorn was recorded by a group of friends over the course of five days in August of 2011 at an active 200-year- old funeral residence in Kentucky. There were 15 songs recorded and only 10 of them were selected for the album. The album received highly favorable reviews. This led The Village Voice to say, “Every song on his debut album Songs of Praise and Scorn cooks with both down-home comfort and avant-garde brio, Stelling building earthy folk troubadour stories over a fluster of wild arpeggios.” American Songwriter noted, “Stelling is an artist who can leave one shaking one’s head in bewilderment over how somebody can play difficult guitar parts and sing a completely disparate melody line at the same time. But he also hasn’t forgotten how to just play simple chords when that’s what a song calls for.”
Stelling’s sophomore album False Cities, was released on May 21st the day after the first European tour. Rick Moore of Music News Nashville stated of the album that “…he is among the top among the current generation of folk singers making a living performing house shows and driving to shows in vehicles held by clips of paper. His ability to pick is an advantage, but he sings and writes with passion and determination that many of his fellow musicians lack…Stelling is at the top of his game when it comes down to creating songs that translate onto the stage when his tour across the country perform his songs.” The site for US and UK music. There Goes the Fear, Carrie Clancy wrote, “Despite the obvious comparisons to more mainstream folk artists, the musical range of ‘False Cities’, especially Stelling’s powerful vocal delivery, makes a unique impression. His fire-and-brimstone lyrics are by turns concretely narrative and vaguely evocative, depending on the tone and focus of the song. As a songwriter, Stelling handles his subject matter quite deftly.” Chris Martins of SPIN magazine wrote about the album “The singer- songwriter with a fingerpick sings his own distinctive quavering style with a smouldering blaze of fire (“The waiting swamp”) as well as hope (“You Are able to Create It”) across these 10 songs, which whip the listener back and forth like a steam-powered hayride.”
