Last week, @bellx1 & @dowrystrings played three sold-out shows in the JL Greene Theatre at Irish Arts Center. The trio and cross-genre string ensemble shared reimagined interpretations of Bell X1's 25-year catalog with enthralled audiences.
Thanks to everyone who joined us in welcoming Bell X1 back to New York City for the first time since 2017, with special thanks to @cultureireland .

To Éna Brennan and Dowry Strings for that special little something of what the French call: I Don't Know What...

New music alert! We are tremendously excited to be involved in @bellx1 ’s upcoming album Merciful Hour. Due for release on May 26th, the album is a collection of 10 tracks recorded with John ‘Spud’ Murphy @guerrillasounds in the gorgeous Meadow Studios. We feature on a lucky 7 of these tracks, many of which we first arranged for stage but are now reshaped and reimagined for recording. Looking forward to sharing more. 🦞🧡
Such a lovely time had in @liveatstlukes with our great pals @bellx1 . Back in the belly of where we recorded the live album earlier this year. Hope you enjoy wrapping your ears around the record in patient anticipation of new choons in the new year… ✨

Lovely to have our friend @ptgphotos in the grand Dutchy of Cork…
Live at St Luke’s ✨ Out Now! Listen through your preferred online and streaming platforms. It’s very special to have these arrangements encapsulated in a record, having played them many a time over the past few years in both new and familiar venues all around Ireland and in London. Thank you to @bellx1 for their trust in us wrapping their much loved songs in new clothes.
