   About Bela Karoli
"Furnished Rooms, is a stunning set of jazzy acoustic compositions with touches of subtle electronics. The album is filled with beautifully structured dynamics and captivating sonic twists." -- NPR.org, All Songs Considered ....................................................................................................................................................... "Named after a famously volcanic gymnastics coach, Bela Karoli is a band that simmers where others scream. Julie Davis’ stark vocals and the pensive rhythms of her upright bass manage to convey organic analog warmth and an icy digital disposition. Both of those vibes are ably augmented by the unsettling moan of Carrie Beeder’s violin and the wheeze of Brigid McAuliffe’s accordion." -- SPIN Magazine ....................................................................................................................................................... “The record is a marvel of sequencing and production - to say nothing of the songs' quality - and already a contender for the best Colorado release of 2007.” -- John Wenzel, Denver Post ....................................................................................................................................................... “Exceptional music …. ‘Furnished Rooms’ is startlingly good. Mating organic instrumentation … with mechanical percussion, the act effectively conjures Thom Yorke's dour, Eraser-era landscapes as seen through the lens of Beth Gibbons.” -- Dave Herrera, Westword ....................................................................................................................................................... “Drawing inspiration from Thom Yorke, Emily Dickinson, and the songs of cicadas on summer evenings, Denver’s Bela Karoli has a sound full of joyous eccentricity….The band’s musicianship and cohesion allows it to move easily though genres, textures, and moods.” -- Cassie Schoon for The A.V. Club, The Onion ....................................................................................................................................................... “Bela Karoli’s music is a thing of beauty.” -- Westword ....................................................................................................................................................... “One of Denver's best and most interesting bands Bela Karoli's dark syrupy music is a welcome antidote to today's pop-music scene.” -- Fox 31, myfoxcolorado.com ....................................................................................................................................................... “Haunting, jazz-inflected electro acoustic tunes that ooze with grace.” -- Ricardo Baca, Denver Post ....................................................................................................................................................... "'Furnished Rooms' may just be a fable of machine’s domination over nature. But regardless of the interpretation, Bela Karoli’s ability to tastefully forge such a concept out of other sources is their biggest asset....the band’s predilection for conceptual songwriting over the gratification of untainted chamber pop makes this a formidable record. -- tinymixtapes.com ....................................................................................................................................................... "[Bela Karoli] sings about odd things in quirky voices, and it is doing everything right to keep music fresh and interesting. Denver’s Bela Karoli...produces disarmingly beautiful and complex songs." -- Sante Fe Reporter ....................................................................................................................................................... "What makes Bela Karoli feel like 21st century cafe music is...in the overall vibe they exude....Bela Karoli is more concerned with making elegant, dreamy music that's contemporary but timeless. -- Jason Ferguson, reaxmusic.com .......................................................................................................................................................

Sorry to spam you, we know it's lame. But, we're releasing our debut CD Zugenruhe next Friday (May 22nd) at Avogadro's Number right here in Fort Collins, and we would really love to see you there! The show starts at 9pm and is all ages and only costs $3. There will be an afterparty to be announced at the show. Thanks for putting up with our shameless self promotion. We really hope you can make it.
