The BellRays

WE ARE SUPER EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE THE MIGHTY BELLRAYS WILL BE PLAYING A VERY SPECIAL SHOW IN HARLOW THIS NOVEMBER!

Rock Around The Hops at Redchurch Brewery

California's Punk Funk Rock and Rollers will be playing live in the heart of a working brewery on Thursday 3rd November and you need to be there.

It’s all about emotion and energy, experience and raw talent, spirit and intellect. Exciting things happen when these things collide.

Bob Vennum and Lisa Kekaula made the BellRays happen in 1991 in East LA but they weren’t really thinking about any of this then. They wanted to play music and they wanted it to feel good. They wanted people to WANT to get up, to NEED to get up and check out what was going on. Form an opinion. React.

So they took everything they knew about; the Beatles, Stevie Wonder, the Who, the Ramones, Billie Holiday, Lou Rawls, Hank Williams, the DB’s, Jimmy Reed, Led Zeppelin, to name a very few and pressed it into service.

It was never about coming up with a ‘sound’, or fitting in with a scene. It was about the energy that made all that music so irresistible.
