The Belle Game: Review & Video

Photo by Ming Wu

After a few weeks of mildly obsessing over The Belle Game, the band finally made it to Canteen to play an awesome set for Bands Undone. For such a young band their sound and chemistry can undoubtedly withstand comparisons to Feist, Ohbijou and the Shins. Honestly you guys, their future is so bright they all should invest in a pair of sweet sunglasses!

This also marked the first public event at Bands Undone which I believe added a special element for everyone in attendance.

Be sure to check out The Belle Game, I promise you won’t regret it!

Watch this video on YouTube.

Thanks to the WildWorks Station and everyone who came out and made this event so wonderful.
