Your New Favourite Band #107: Bluebell

May 28th, 2012

Pop is a beautiful thing when it’s done properly. London duo, Bluebell, have mastered it to perfection.

We first played (and fell in love with) Bluebell when Normal Heights was made available online a year back. It has since had a production make-over by Liam Howe (Marina and the Diamonds, Lana Del Rey) elevating the gorgeous pop gem into something magnificently euphoric. The track grows out of Annabel’s sultry, intimate vocal into an almost symphonic crescendo.

Normal Heights is now getting its official physical release through our good friends over at Killing Moon Limited (Worship, Strangers) alongside AA side, Cinderella (featured above). If Normal Heights teased you with Bluebell‘s promise, then Cinderella floors you. It has the confident swagger of an artist going on to huge things. Aggressive synth stabs penetrate the verses before giving way to a thick chorus layered with lush vocal harmonies.

The self-made video for Cinderella (above) is beautiful and nostalgic, featuring footage from Disney films and cut with images sent in from fans.

Normal Heights // Cinderella is out on 11th June through Killing Moon Limited. Check out more from Bluebell at their amazingtunes.com profile.
