Bella Hardy Bella Hardy Edale Bella Hardy, the inimitable voice of modern folk, established her reputation as a songwriter when her first original composition Three Black Feathers earned a BBC Folk Award nomination in 2008. Bella has since become a regular on radio and television, notably singing solo in a sold-out Albert Hall at the Proms. She’s written and recorded with everyone from Beautiful South founder David Rotheray to folk luminary Eliza Carthy, and performed with the great Mary Chapin Carpenter on her UK tours. She learnt the songs of Chinese farmers during her time as British Council Musician in Residence in Yunnan Province, spent a year in Tennessee as a ranch hand, and sat on the moors of her beloved Peak District with only her fiddle for company. With the ability to conjure and twist stories that call straight to the heart, her themes of displacement and home, lost and found love, heartache and joy, are delivered with her unique, disarming honesty, and the acclaimed crystalline voice that won her BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards Singer of the Year 2014. “Brit folk's finest” – Mojo “A fine, no-nonsense interpreter of traditional music and an excellent songwriter” - The Guardian “Few are as adventurous and intriguing” – Songlines “Stunning… there is an aura of sophistication that will win over listeners who never set foot in a folk club” - The Sunday Times Bella Hardy’s tracks Shepherds Are The Cleverest Lads by Bella Hardy published on 2024-01-22T11:37:52Z One Day at a Time by Bella Hardy published on 2024-09-23T12:10:44Z The Ballad of Stone by Bella Hardy published on 2024-09-23T12:13:07Z Stone of Stone (The Theme Song) by Bella Hardy published on 2026-02-01T12:00:49Z Silverlight by Bella Hardy published on 2022-07-06T11:25:19Z Lowlands Away by Bella Hardy published on 2022-07-06T11:23:05Z Greenwood Laddie by Bella Hardy published on 2022-07-06T11:22:41Z Loving Hannah by Bella Hardy published on 2022-07-06T11:18:11Z Awake Awake by Bella Hardy published on 2022-07-06T11:16:43Z Hares on the Mountain by Bella Hardy published on 2022-07-06T11:16:03Z
