Luke Bell (musician)

Luke Bell is an American country musician from Cody, Wyoming.[1] According to Rolling Stone, Bell "plays classic honky-tonk with a wink and a yodel that summons the sleeping ghosts of country better than any voodoo spell ever could".[2]

Career

Bell attended Cody High School, graduating in 2008. Bell released his self-titled debut album in 2012.[3] In 2014, Bell released his second full-length album, titled Don't Mind If I Do.[4]

In 2015, Bell recorded a Daytrotter session, According to Daytrotter, "The people that Bell writes about have bigger than life personalities, but they've been beaten down by life so many times, dragged through the brambles and across the gravel a bunch. They have sticky memories that probably require the bottle. It's a hard go of it, when you're out fending for yourself." and "Bell is, without a doubt, one of the most talented country and western songwriters working and his stories are of Hemingway quality, if Hemingway had wanted to be Hank Williams rather than an island drunk".[5]
