About Me |

| Music Resource Group and their distinguished judging panels, have named Songs for Love Drunk Sinners , by Jan Bell & The Cheap Dates, ALTERNATIVE COUNTRY ALBUM OF THE YEAR Finalist in the 7th annual Independent Music Awards. Click Here To View and Rate Finalists Made in Brooklyn, and produced by Samantha Parton (The Be Good Tanyas) the album was chosen over thousands of entries world wide. On the Jukebox, you’ll see that there is a rating system for all Finalists in every category. This is for the Vox Populi poll that will determine the Winners of the popular vote. In Jan's songs and stories there is the strength and struggle of all humanity. She is a truth teller, a true troubador, heart breaker and heart mender Samantha Parton, Be Good Tanyas Maybe growing up in Nottinghamshire is what sets Jan Bell apart from the run of local lady folkies. Or maybe its the slide guitars, harmonicas, mandolins and banjos. Dark, old timey spareness......gorgeous Eddytors Choice, Village Voice. 4 STARS - Critics Pick NXNE Wonderful new album, Jan Bell and company are the real deal Tim Perlich, Now Toronto A mighty fine album Americana UK Amazing show! Sweetly haunting melodies, and an ace banjo player to boot Alt.country Canada Thankyou for your wonderful musical artistry!

Fayetteville Free Weekly Jan exceeded my hopes and expectations - the inmates truly loved her music. Wonderful! NY Women Judges Association Perhaps because of her British heritage, Jan Bell is more of a traditionalist than anyone in either Nickel Creek or the Duhks. A triumph!
