Bella Hardy, Postcards & Pocketbooks. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

We all undertake a journey, but quite often we are so wrapped up in mapping out our own possible routes that we forget others are placing their own faith in the stars to guide them, we don’t see the hazards they encounter along the way, we have no empathy for the struggle, and in the end we judge them on the Postcards & Pocketbooks they send us when they reach their destination. Such is the reflection of the human mind that we believe their route was plain sailing, whilst ours had to navigate every iceberg and shark infested waters possible.

Bella Hardy, Gig Review. The Music Room, Liverpool Philharmonic Hall, Liverpool.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

The laughter inside the Philharmonic Hall would have been bordering on the intense as Bill Bailey regaled his fans for the second night running, yet tucked away but as bold as anything inside the newly opened Music Room of the hallowed Philharmonic Hall, a different type of evening was taking place, one that flowed with a touch of the regal, the harmonious fusing of haunting vocals and instruments and all times the serenity of the Folk machine. With Bella Hardy in Liverpool for one night only there really was no comparison to be made; the sweet lingering voice of Ms. Hardy was always going to be the most captivating event to be fortunate to witness.
