Glenna Bell
Artist Review
At first, Glenna's music seemed overly simplistic,... then something happened around the second song: I realized that her stories were like mythology where the characters, motives, and behaviors are quite simple in order to speak the deepest truths within us. To check my head, I had some of my most jaded, snobby, music loving buddies, check out the CD as well. To a man, they were all hooked early in the game. After seeing Glenna live, I now know her secret: She gets up on her stool, grabs her guitar, and gazes into a space right above the crowd while letting loose with a voice any crooner would die for. People shut up and listen when they hear her. Her music is the siren song that even drunk and horny blabber mouths simply have to attend. Glenna's genre is described in some of her press as Goth-Americana. I get the Americana part, I'm not so sure about the Goth reference. Maybe it's that she has some sort of dark arts power that enables her to cross her genre boundaries so effortlessly, and gain the attention, and appreciation of almost anyone who listens.
