REVIEWS: "Pop from SF that’s a lot better than what I’ve been hearing. Citing a surf influence, I only hear more of a Spector-like commitment to reverb, played through clean, droningly rhythmic guitars and voiced with drowsy prose. A song like “Table by the Window” works as well as it does because it manages to evoke other highly-stylized bands in quick successive passing – Reckoning era R.E.M., Radiohead, the Police – but apply it all to a more traditional ‘60s pop structure. Their cover of George Harrison’s “Awaiting On You All” is faithful to the original and in essence is a very big tell to what they would sound like with a bigger budget and better studio resources, a Wall of Sound that focuses on the guitar and the tambourine. The religious message of Harrison’s masterwork takes on a decidedly Christian pall here, which might turn off some, but regardless, these folks have got something good here."
--Dusted Magazine, Still Single: Vol. 4, No. 12
"This week, [the Botticellis] let out an extended take of one of their album tracks, “Table By The Window” on a limited 7″, the first release of new label Bellevue Records. It isn’t the kind of song that stands out right away, but warms up to you with each listen on the merit of its earnest immediacy and wistful nostalgia. I’m not sure how much bigger the Botticellis will be a year from now, but I'm convinced they’ll be nestled comfortably in the warm pristine sound they’ve carved out neatly for themselves. That can only be a good thing."

Bellevue Records is a independent record label located in Chicago, Illinois. The label was formed in the fall of 2007 by Anna Deem and Rob Jares (former co-owner of Waste of Time Records). Bellevue Records was started as an outlet to release music by bands that we feel can truly make a difference in the independent scene. We want to cultivate strong relationships with the bands we work with and help them grow and gain success. Our goal with Bellevue Records is to form a sense of community with whoever we work with and make a strong mark on the independent scene by releasing music that means something to us and others.
If you could, please spare a moment to enjoy the newest work from Oakland-based musician Dave Smallen. His new album titled 'Everything Changes and Nothing Changes' will be available everywhere on December 1st.
