Wild Belle

A Chicago-born Los Angeles-based sibling duo, the indie rock act Wild Belle features Natalie and Elliot Bergman. The group released its third studio album, Everybody One of A Kind earlier this year and comes to town tonight on a club tour before opening for Beck, Spoon, and Cage the Elephant this summer. The duo has had their works displayed in prominent art galleries and directed their own music videos (Natalie Bergman animated the video for "Have You Both" and does collage and Elliot has showcased his "Peace Bells" installation at the prestigious Marciano Foundation). Elliot Bergman also makes bells by melting down guns and bullet casings from Chicago. The disc nicely veers from reggae-tinged rock tunes such as "Mockingbird" to electronica ballads like the woozy title track. (Niesel)
