The Belles

the band has returned with a follow up – what really should have been the logical successor to ‘Omerta’. Appropriately titled, ‘Time Flies When You’re Losing Your Mind’ the album draws on all the strengths that gave the band its initial appeal – simple melodies, lo-fi charm, and great pop songs. As Time Out once proclaimed… ’simple, frills-free Americana’- SCRINK.com****************************************************************



"With hat-tips to the likes of the much-missed Elliot Smith, Neil Young and Wilco, The Belles pen inspired, thoughtful and infectiously hummable songs which are very much their own. Omerta mixes the down-beat melancholy of tracks such as 'These Things Will Kill Me' with the heart-warming, upbeat charm of the single 'Never Said Anything' to create an accomplished, assured debut."
