Biography
Belle was born and raised in Glasgow, Scotland, the youngest sibling of three.[citation needed] She started out busking covers of R.E.M. and Alanis Morissette.[citation needed]
At 17, she left Glasgow and moved to London to pursue a career in music. In 2001, she was signed to a short-lived manufactured pop-folk group called the Alice Band.[citation needed] In 2004, Belle was spotted by a friend of Stewart's when she was busking outside an underground station.[4]
After the duet with Stewart, Belle moved to Los Angeles through contacts she made via Stewart's manager. There she recorded a track with Robby Krieger and Ray Manzarek from The Doors.[1] Within three years, she had returned to performing in the United Kingdom.[1]
