J-14 is scouting out the hottest bands around... and this week's pick is Belle Histoire.
Here are five things you need to know about Belle Histoire, whose EP I Can Tell is out tomorrow!
1. Indie pop-rock band Belle Histoire from Cincinnati, OH, consists of lead vocalist Jane Smith, guitarists Aaron Hunt and Austin Livingood, drummer Wes Comer, and bassist Mitch Winsett. "I was currently in a different band when my brother told me he'd pay me to record the songs that I never used for the other band because he thought they were my most creative and best written songs," Jane tells J-14. "My best friend who is also my brother's best friend, and our friend Wes recorded the songs with me. We were like 'wow, this could actually take us somewhere'."
2. Originally Jane wanted to name the band "The History," but their producer decided they needed something more creative. Belle Histoire was created, which means "beautiful history" in French.
