About Me

Picking up the guitar in 2001 after the frustrations of being nothing more than a vocalist, Zombelle began writing songs in 2002. From the Midwest, now living in CA, she started playing shows in 2005. Slowly having her songs heard through recordings off of the Dead Notes Demo (which she self-produced in 2006), a milky-heart-heavy orb of lightless womb sensations which began attracting crowds to her live shows.
With very basic guitar chords complimented by a slew of vocal tracks, heart-beat rhythms, experimental sounds, creaks and a feel reminiscent of a creeped-out-Shadow-Spector-drenched-soul-era, her sound is certainly her own.

The Zombelle- she is fair.
She walks hand in hand with a beastly sea-side man.
Salt of the sea tastes good to me, lets suck it up til none there be.
It's the Sea Beasts lungs that drag it in, with scales instead of soft pink skin.
Let's dance until the end of love, music and the beast, it's hand in glove.
