New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Born and raised in Australia, sibling duo Belle
Roscoe combine contemporary sounds and production with classic retro song writing styles. They have been described as 'a cross between
Arcade Fire & Fleetwood Mac' but in truth this description does them a disservice. In their varied, melodic music, you can hear many influences, including the eclectic likes of Neil Young, Bowie, Springsteen,
Elbow and Fleet Foxes.
It's a combination, underpinned by flawless sibling vocal harmonies, that tightly fixes their ambition to marry the modern with the classic; an ambition which is more than met with new album 'Boom Boom'. For a taste of what we're talking about, check out lead single 'Gun To My Head' here:

The new album was written in Paris (recorded between Belgium, Malta and Paris) and is heavily influenced by the joys and hardships of living and writing so far from home - as summed up perfectly on album track 'Paris II', itself a follow up to 'Paris' from their self-titled debut album. Life in the creative, romantic French capital tended to blend moments of beauty with those of struggle, mostly in financial matters and in dealing with music industry types. Still, the pair clung on to their lives in the city and drew from it a rich vein of song writing inspirations.
Now back in Melbourne, the exciting but humbling experience has resulted in a new maturity to their music, and a new perspective on life in general. The new album 'Boom Boom' is produced by Luuk Cox (Shameboy, Girls in Hawaii,
Stromae & MLCD), and the time will soon be right to share it with the wider world.
Over the years Belle
Roscoe have either supported or played alongside many major Australian artists including Jet, Cat Empire, Husky, Wolf Mother,
James Reyne, Killing
Heidi and more, as well playing countless festivals and sold out shows in both
Europe and Australia. Hard working and genuine in their love of the art, Belle
Roscoe are set to make 2015 a breakthrough year.
And, if you're in any doubt as to their pedigree, they even have a live appearance on TV soap Neighbours to their name. How many up and coming bands can say that?
