Belle Adair.
“This is Spartan-but-sophisticated pop music grounding itself with
acoustic strings, harmonium, pedal steel guitar, and precise harmonies…” -Black & White (Birmingham, AL)
Belle Adair began as a weekend recording project between four friends living in different Alabama cities. After a year of recording in random bursts, Matt Green joined keyboardist/engineer Ben Tanner in Muscle Shoals, and the band recently added Daniel Stoddard, Chris James, and Patrick McDonald.
They are preparing to release their EP “Belle Adair EP” – previously self-released – on Speak/Sing Records on October 1st. On the EP, you’ll find slow-building songs composed of a diverse set of instruments and sounds. ‘Over twenty minutes, the band moves from the airy acoustic folk of “No Reply” to the swirling, suite-like “Happy to Pretend.”
Keep an eye for more as Belle Adair is currently preparing to record a full length record this fall which will see the light of day in 2012.
