JAKE BELLOWS

NEVA DINOVA - CANARY

Neva Dinova frontman Jake Bellows on the band's upcoming album Canary:
I was just struck by how much more effective I felt as a person (making this album), Bellows says, reflecting on his musical career. Maybe some of the things are a little bit of a sad story, but I think the point is that somebody else might not have to make all of my mistakes. Canary is a raw and unfiltered glimpse of Bellows' psyche at that time and it also marks a second act for one of indie rock's most underrated acts.

JAKE BELLOWS - NEW OCEAN

OUT NOW

Neva Dinova frontman Jake Bellows solo project began with the enlistedment of old friends Ben Brodin (engineer at ARC Studios and Conor Oberst sideman), Ryan Fox (The Good Life), Todd Fink (The Faint), and Heath Koontz (Neva Dinova) for help in the making of New Ocean, his solo debut.

The songs? A mix tape of gauzy introspection, winsome upbeat rockers, left turns into drunk-in-the-sun bossa nova, blued-eyed soul as ruptured by a fuzzed-out guitar solo, and a song that tries to change the fabric of the universe by the very frequencies it emits.
