About the event
Danny Bell and His Disappointments play Northern bc folk/country/punk with infectious charm. Based in British Columbia on unceded Lhedli T'enneh territory, Danny’s music is regional. It’s steeped in his affection for his home in the hinterland, a blue collar town, the stink of the pulp mill, and everyday life in Northern BC. Bell's songs toe the line between tragedy and comedy.
Danny Bell and His Disappointments released their second album, “Songs for the town”, in December of 2020. Exclaim! magazine called the album an “anti-capitalist, anti-elitist, anti-asshole folk record for small moments in small places.”The band’s newest release, titled Killing birds, was mostly recorded in the foreman’s office in an abandoned sawmill just outside of Mackenzie, BC. The EP’s songs are reactions to a change in pace and identity during the pandemic. the slow pace and isolation of a part-time security job brought a new perspective.
