Bell has played stages from the Woody Guthrie Archives to the Waldorf Astoria; Festivals from Greyfox to Glastonbury - and winner of two Independent Music Awards for Best Album.
Along the way opening for Wanda Jackson, Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, and most recently Sierra Ferrell.
“Maybe growing up in Nottinghamshire is what sets Jan Bell apart from the run of local lady folkies. Or maybe its the slide guitars, harmonicas, mandolins and banjos. Dark, old timey spareness......gorgeous ” - Chuck Eddy, The Village Voice
“Bell's music isn't strictly bluegrass, but her reworking of old-time country and jug-band blues is remarkably nuanced. It embodies the wide-open spirit of what has become an antic, hybrid genre.” - Edd Hurt, The Nashville Scene
