She's Brazilian, but it's definitely not samba.

About Me

"Autobiographical and honest, Bel Garcia weaves a kind of poetry that doesn¹t need to conceal tenderness under irony. She creates melancholy portraits of urban monotony while also revealing the beauty that hides in a big city. Perhaps the songs are about the irrelevance of love and simple domestic sadness, like tears kept inside a Tupperware jar. Perhaps... Musically, her songs combine the honest simplicity of love songs written on an acoustic guitar in a dimly lit empty room with the sexy charisma of a female feline strutting through the big city. Combine these elements with a considerable amount of rock n¹ roll and you've got an idea of what her music is all about. All the while, the delicacy and the subtle inflections of her voice accentuate the romantic echoes in the words she sings." -Hugo SantosXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XX"Adoro descobrir grupos ou cantores geniais de quem nunca havía ouvido falar. Bluebell é desses casos, ela é destas cantoras cuja voz tem personalidade e se destaca. Impossível não ficar encantado. Com uma produção pensada em cada detalhe faz deste Slow Motion Ballet uma das melhores surpresas musicais deste ano. Tem cara de que veio para ficar." -Fernando Meirelles – Cineasta XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX "Surpresa, surpresa, surpresa. Este é o tom do cd de estréia da Bluebell (também conhecida como a cantora e compositora Bel Garcia). Ela vai de pegadas nervosas como “Ordinary Life” à suavidade provocante de Dull Routine, It Could Have Been. Há até parte de faixa, “La Vie en Chose”, que ela canta chorando no chuveiro." -Donizetti Costa-O Diário de São Paulo
