Violet Bell weaves roots, soul, psychedelic, and classical music into
a lush, wild soundscape. On stage and in the studio, the North
Carolina duo of Lizzy Ross (guitar, banjo, vocals) and Omar Ruiz-Lopez
(violin, viola, cello, guitar, mandolin, vocals) share magnetic
chemistry. The two have played more than 300 shows from Montreal to
Miami in just over two years, honing the fiery intimacy of their live
show and a building a steadily growing fanbase.
Violet Bell cut their debut LP Honey in My Heart with engineer Jason
Richmond (Avett Brothers, Steep Canyon Rangers, Nneena Freelon, Dom
Flemons, Bombadil). The songs were recorded live in single takes,
without isolation, click tracks, or vocal tuning. The sound is dynamic
and many-colored, spanning styles. Full of personality, Honey in My
Heart feels consistent with the duo’s true selves as opposed to
hidden behind studio wizardry.
Violet Bell was an official Americanafest 2018 showcasing artist.
Since forming in March 2016, Violet Bell has been presented at venues
and festivals such as WoodSongs Old Time Radio Hour, The Center for
the Study of the American South, Rooster Walk Festival, Shakori Hills
Grassroots Festival, Ocrafolk Festival, the Charleston Bluegrass
Festival, the Festival for the Eno, the Beaufort Music Festival, the
Burlington Carousel Festival, the Haw River Ballroom, Folk Alliance
International, and many more.
Violet Bell has worked with KidzNotes, the Wake Forest Community Youth
Orchestra, The Jacksonville Children’s Chorus, the University of
Mary Washington’s James Farmer Multicultural Fair, the Savannah Folk
Music Society, and others to engage communities of all ages in
educational and inspiring workshops.
Violet Bell was born in 2016, when singer-songwriter Ross recruited
Ruiz-Lopez as a multi-instrumentalist for a live album recording
show… two weeks before the show. Ruiz-Lopez slayed the performance
and brought out a new dimension of beauty in the music. Violet Bell
released their debut EP Dream the Wheel in 2017 and have been playing
ever since.
