Irish indie rock four-piece Bell X1 call to mind pre-electronic Radiohead and the more sedate side of Coldplay, crafting tight, melodic pop with introspective and witty lyrics. Having recorded albums with the likes of Nick Seymour (Crowded House) and Roger Birichiam (Elvis Costello), the band is best known for its ability to craft infectious yet durable radio-friendly hooks with strong production values. Though "official records" place Bell X1's date of formation to 1999, the Celbridge, Co. Kildare group's roots stretch back a further eight years to the birth of Juniper.
