The Black Tongued Bells

The Bells took their name from a Dylan Thomas poem and, in the winter of 2001, set out to create their own brand of roots musicdubbed "American Swamp". They tap everything from Roots Rock and Roll, Blues and Motown to Americana, Cajun and Gospel. Once forced to describe the Bells sound in a single sentence, Miner replied; "Imagine if the Stones came from Louisiana...they might sound like us".
The Bells are known for two distinctly different kinds of shows. The first is their Electrified Roots Rock 'n Roll Show for which they plug-in and are often joined by special guest artists.
