GRACEfulLEE is Kelly's fourth studio album. It has received positive reviews from music critics,[2][3][4] including a four and a half star review from Down Beat Magazine in November 2008.[5] Down Beat went on to name the album as one of the "Best CDs of 2008" in January 2009 [6] and then one of the "Best CDs of the 2000s the next year.[7] The cover of this album made a brief appearance in the television series, Bosch, produced by Amazon Studios, recreating a scene from the novel The Black Box (A Harry Bosch Book) by Michael Connelly.[8] when Harry Bosch tries to interest his daughter in Jazz by noting some of the younger artists of the genre.

Kelly's collaboration with Lee Konitz continued into 2014, appearing as a guest with the Quartet onstage at the 60th Newport Jazz Festival of that year.[11]
