Belle and Sebastian
Gentle, literate pop that feels like a well-worn paperback. Intimate storytelling wrapped in warm brass and soft acoustic guitars for quiet, thoughtful afternoons.

Formed in Glasgow in 1996, the United Kingdom indie rock group Belle and Sebastian features members Stuart Murdoch, Isobel Campbell, Stuart David, Stevie Jackson, Chris Geddes, and Richard Colburn. The band, which releases music through Rough Trade, derives its name from a short story written by Murdoch. Throughout their career, the collective has established a distinct musical identity while drawing frequent comparisons to artists like Nick Drake and the Smiths.
