The Bell Brothers

Brothers Alan and Andrew Bell were born in Manhattan, KS, in 1991 to an American father and a Colombian mother. They were introduced to the world of music as children through their father, a lifelong saxophone player, who inspired them to explore music on their own terms. As teenagers they became heavily involved in music for the first time, spending 3 years traveling North America performing to a variety of audiences.

They moved to Bogotá, Colombia in 2013 to attend university, where they began writing and recording original songs, which would be later used for their debut album Cold, Dark & Dirty. The inspiration behind the album came from a culmination of life experiences, including their travels in the U.S., life in Colombia, past relationships and overcoming the frustrations of growing up, transforming all this into a physical documentation of their history so far.
