A Cappella at Easter

Bells is the youngest a cappella group from St Andrews, known for its sofly woven arrangements and carefully balanced blend. The group had the honour of winning the Scottish A Cappella Championships in 2016 and best arrangement the same year, as well as the pleasure of performing at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2017. They cover an eclectic range of genres.

Hailing from the Scottish seaside town of St Andrews is the award-winning a cappella group Bells. Inspired by a wide range of genres from jazz to pop, soul to traditional music, Bells is a contemporary choir performing softly woven arrangements, sampling instrumental motifs and heartfelt lyrics by James Blake, Alt J, Stormzy, Sufjan Stevens and many more.

Bells gained national prominence in its first year as a fully mixed ensemble after winning the 2016 Scottish A Cappella Championships. Combining a wide range of musical genres with original compositions and evocative arrangements, the group is known for weaving stories through their performances.

Vocally sampling lyrical, harmonic and melodic motifs in a bold fusion of genres, drawing on noughties' hip hop, indie and electronic folk, and late classical and romantic music, Bells repackages contemporary themes with faith-emotive melodies to produce a uniquely colourful, graceful and moving masterpiece for a composed, controlled and creative vocal show.
