Nashville-native Chapel Bell was infused with a love of music from an early age, though she originally fell in love with performing through clogging (and has the National Champion trophies to prove it)! Her eclectic interest -including pursuing a degree in Geology -are reflected not only by the venues she frequents, but also in the unique musical style as she writes uptempo songs accompanied by thoughtful lyrics. While Chapel loves playing her way across the country (New York, New Jersey, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Mississippi, Alabama and more) her heart is in here in Nashville where she hosts residency's and rounds, enjoys a supportive songwriting community and has played everything from festivals including Pilgrimage Fest, to rock clubs, Broadway bars to churches. She has six singles on all streaming platforms with an EP's worth of live recordings to be released in 2026.
