   About isobell
isobell's a band from portland, maine and we're now in our umpteenth and happiest iteration..born years ago, when hannah & chris started writing songs together, isobell's been rejiggering for a few months and once again we're graced by our original keyboardist, bekah, after a too-long los angeles sojourn..the marvelous, vault-like mind of josh and his badass bass fingers keep propelling us onward..and newest addition, mike brings his incredible experience and wonderfully varied drumming to our mix.. for our first album, we availed ourselves of the recording wizardry of mr. ron harrity, in whose MAPROOM by the sea and LAUNDRYROOM, further intown, we've gotten some songs down, lashed with wire and splashed with ocean spume.. we're currently working on a new EP that should be out soon..thanks for listening..xox
