Weekly Update: 10/24/2008

Apologies for the belated update. We weren't really happy with the recording we made of Meteor so we've decided to postpone our release of a new track for another week or two. On a positive note, four of our songs have now hit the homepage on thesixtyone.com and our cover of Bridges looks like it will probably hit it soon as well! Thanks so much for the support you guys have given us on that site. If you know of any other cool sites where we could post our music please email me (belleswake@gmail.com) and let me know! Thanks again! -Brooks

Ps: We're redesigning this site, it should be out pretty soon!

Weekly Update: 10/17/2008

Today we're releasing a recording we've made of Joanna Newsom's lovely Bridges and Balloons. Since it's not an original BW song you won't find the lyrics on our lyricwiki page. Next week I believe we're releasing an original track entitled Meteor.

Big thanks to all of you who've bumped our tracks on thesixtyone.com! It's great that so many new people are checking out our music! -Brooks

Weekly Update: 10/10/2008

Today we're releasing A Fevered Dream. This song first debuted at our KSU show last year. At that time we had no lyrics for it and Andrew just made them up on the spot! I don't think anyone noticed :)

It's a return to the more traditional BW sound with Andrew on lead vocals. You can find the lyrics to this (and all of the songs we've released) at BW's lyricwiki page. We hope you enjoy it! Next week I think we're releasing a cover of Joanna Newsom's Bridges and Balloons. Don't quote me on that, though, it all depends on which of our tracks gets mixed first! -Brooks

Weekly Update: 10/03/2008

Today we're releasing Persephone. This is an older song, written around the same time as the Nature of the Ground tracks. It's also my personal favorite of the BW catalog. It's another slow pretty song that Ashley sings lead on. Most of the rest of the tracks we're working on feature Andrew on vocals and are faster and more consistent with the Belle's Wake sound you heard on the Nature Ep. Next week we'll release one of these, a track entitled "A Fevered Dream."

I also want to say thanks once again to Alden from the Bringer of Song for the very kind words about our first new release Penelope. Be sure to check out his site, he really knows his music and will turn you on to some cool new artists! -Brooks
