Bella Bazarria

Step right up and get ready to rawk! Bringing the side show of our lives to the main stage, Indie rockers Bella Bazarria have made their lucky mark with '13'.

BB is group of diverse and accomplished friends who have made music that is emotionally charged with their deep personal experiences.

Fronted by the enrapturing Cherish Alexander who has several studio albums under her belt including a deal with RCA/BMG, and publishing contract with Warner/Chappell. She toured nationally and released three albums with her rock band The Painkillers. Collaboration is a big part of her artistic life, in addition to songwritting with people like Billy Steinberg (Madonna, Pretenders) and John Shanks (Stevie Nicks, Alanis Morissette) she has played lead guitar for Cyndi Lauper and has written songs for TV and film soundtracks including 'The Crow'.

On lead guitar is Chris Dane Owens who is taking a break from his solo career to join Cherish and the guys on lead guitar, as well as to direct the FIX video for Bella. His own popular fantasy music video "Shine On Me" was dubbed the "Best Music Video of the Year" by New Yorker Magazine, and the Los Angeles Times proclaimed: "An Internet star is born". The video is currently on TV in France, Australia, Canada, and the US, as well as all over the internet.

Rocking to the right on the keys and guitar is John Cox, a true multi-instrumentalist who has worked in almost every aspect of the music biz; from player to producer, and mixer to studio designer. He has collaborated with a wide range of artists and companies including the creative hotbed Elias Arts... JC brings all this musical wealth to shape the Bella sound.

On drums is Jano Janosik who has played drums & toured
internationally with many bands including Stewboss (6 cds), & Lisa Hayes and the Violets (Straightline/Atlantic)(formerly "the Violets"), Renee Stahl, and Bardo. Jano also arranged and was co-producer for Bella’s debut CD 13. He currently has played drums on the new Brian Seymour CD released at the beginning of this year.

This isn't the house of smoke and mirrors, these artists have forged pieces that are real and true to themselves. The group, who formed while Alexander toured a solo effort, lay bare the circus of our unexamined selves and bring their fans with them on a magically uplifting journey. No gimmicks, just pure talent.

In 2012, Bella Bazarria is releasing 6 new singles and a new music video.
