OLGA BELL TEMPO LP VINYL NEW

Product Description

Written, produced and performed by Bell, TEMPO is her third LP-following 2014's Krai and 2011's Diamonite-and features contributions from vocalist Sara Lucas and longtime collaborators Jason Nazary and Gunnar Olsen. Born in Moscow and raised in Alaska, Bell is a composer, producer and performer based in Brooklyn. A prodigious classical pianist as a child and teenager, Bell graduated from Boston's New England Conservatory before moving to New York City to pursue electronic composition and songwriting. In 2011 she received a Jerome Fund Grant from the American Composers Forum to aid in the completion of her first large-scale composition, Krai, which was released as an album in 2014. The New York Times described Krai as "at once a folkloric study of her homeland and a contemporary exercise in electronic production." "Grand compositional ambitions and a dynamic voice…the arty, adventurous edge of pop" New York Times
