B’ehl

Bright Eyes

Endearing

Fun seems to be a forgotten word in music. I don’t mean Weird Al or Mojo Nixon, I just mean having fun with you music. Not everything has to be deep and heavy. Nice, bouncy, peppy, pop music is what B’ehl is all about. The band’s sound formed by an eclectic but unpretentious instrumentation that includes organ, Moog, flute, acoustic and electric guitars. The key to the whole project, however, is the vocals of Melanie Barnes. Her perky vocals keep the sound light and imbue a sense of whimsy to the songs.
