Belle

New York-based singer/songwriter, Belle, brings a fresh energy to the folk rock scene with her honest heart-felt lyrics. Drawing inspiration from a deep spiritual well, in Belle’s voice can be heard influences of Alanis Morissette and Sheryl Crowe, with deep-set emotional shades, reminiscent of the fiery cinders of artists like Joni Mitchell and Tori Amos.

Her name being the French for ‘beautiful’, Belle aspires to encourage women of all ages to have a positive self image and discover their own inner beauty. Belle’s music communicates a delicately beautiful blend of coffee-house indie with piano tinged vocal pop, drawing on earthy, woody tones, above which Belle’s sometimes melancholy, but always hopeful voice is allowed to soar.

Originally from a small Australian country town of Mittagong, Belle began writing her own songs at 15 as a way of dealing with her own complex teen relationships. In 2009 she moved to New York and was soon after signed by Florida-based indie label, Ingenious Records.

Belle worked with producer Adrian Morales-Demori at Heiga Audiovisual Studios to create her debut album “Never Too Late” with the participation of special guests like Kevin Dippold (Smashing Pumpkins/Spirits in the Sky) and Sterling Campbell (David Bowie, Duran-Duran, B-52’s) and mastered by Multi-Grammy Award Winner Felipe Tichauer (Christina Aguilera, Daddy Yankee). Belle also received endorsement from Lashbrook Guitars.

Belle’s debut album “Never Too Late” is was released on August 16 2011, and you can hear Belle music on radio stations and digital channels worldwide.

Belle will be performing live in NY and throughout the USA this summer 2011.
