CD Description
Glasgow-born singer/songwriter. After the split of the Alice band she continued songwriting and returned to her beloved busking pitch in Glasgow where she was discovered by Rod Stewart, himself a former busker. This led to Rod inviting her to sing a duet with him at the Royal Albert Hall “I Don’t Want To Talk About It”, which was seen by millions on TV (and DVD) around the world. The performance is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7oOeBDEgOU She has written with a variety of top songwriters including Ivor Novello-winning Eg White (Leave Right Now, Chasing Pavements) and this debut album features some of the best of those.

I first heard Amy Belle when she made her debut on Rod Stewart's live show at the Royal Albert Hall. She was described as a stunning new discovery, which was right. Her rendition of 'I don't want to talk about it' was captivating, enchanting and melted the heart. Amy seemed to shun the limelight after that, so I was delighted to find that at last she had made an album. Her voice is intimate, natural and wide-ranging. The 11 tracks travel across emotional, mesmersing, punchy, thoughtful, soulful. Her version of 'I don't want to talk about it' is included and still my favourite, though of course it doesn't have the support of the BBC Philarmonic. I look forward to the next album.

I heard first heard and saw Amy Bell singing with Rod Stewart ('I Don't Want To Talk About It') on a
DVD recording of a live performance at The Albert Hall some three years ago. Ever since, have tried to find a CD of her singing on her own. Tracked the name of this album down, 'Lost in the Shortcut', but could find no retailers who it in stock. Amazon did, and although it CD was mislaid in the post first time around, it arrived within a day once sent out again. Am thrilled to be able to listen to this haunting and beautiful voice at last.
