BLOG 4 SunBell ~ 'bell the cat'
Greetings from Sun Bell ~ 'bell the cat',
First of all we're excitedly working on production of our 2nd CD! We need your help raising the money for this production and if you'd like to invest in this independent woman production there's some percs you can recieve depending on the amount of money you invest. You can email me at sun@sunbellmusic.com for more info. What we've produced and accomplished with the first CD, "Songs From The Wild", our music video, this web site and the many others we have links to with our promotion is an example of what we're capable of independently. With your investments we can only improve our abilities and quality through new technology and focused production. Read further for more about goings on in the lives of 'bell the cat' ~ Sun Bell.

"I'm convinced that singer/songwriter Sun Bell is the love child of Grace Slick and Nina Hagen. I'd love to hear her do a 'White Rabbit'. She has the combined power of Grace's throaty delivery and Hagen's sharp stabs..."
