Santé Loisirs presents....Kalbells (US)
Kalbells sprouted as the solo writing and recording project of Kalmia Traver (Rubblebucket). Over the course of two albums and countless performances the act has become an all-star groove collective with the addition of Angelica Bess (Body Language) and Sarah Pedinotti (Liptalk).
Based in Brooklyn, NY Kalbells has performed at Brooklyn Museum, filmed a Tiny Desk concert, and toured nationally opening for the likes of Chrome Sparks and Lake Street Dive. Cheeky lyrics, warm and dreamy bedroom pop moods, deeply funky bass lines and powerfully tight vocal harmonies are the trademarks of the Kalbells sound.
The sophomore album from Kalbells, illustrates the formidable love Kalmia Traver discovered with her touring band turned bandmates. Together, Angelica Bess, Zoë Becher, Sarah Pedinotti and Traver, practice both listening and accountability, rejoicing in their queerness, and promoting each other to be their most genuine selves. The result is Max Heart—ten vibrant and subtly layered tracks of mesmerizing psychedelic synth-pop. Common groove language is a rare medicine to happen across, which is why, as a group, playing together has been not only exciting, but healing. Max Heart harnesses this magnetic power for a collection of songs that are packed with inspired tension and daring surreality.

Born in Italy and based in Amsterdam, Marta developed a songwriting that is enchanted, melancholic and hopeful at the same time.
