I found some songs from a "Juniper" collection.



Where and when are these from



Is this the name of the old band he used to be part of?

Yes. He was part of Juniper, but left because he wasnt happy with the record company dictating the direction of the band, plus he had different ideas himself, to the rest of the band. So he went solo and they became "BellX1". They're playing Witnness this year aswel as Damo.


By the way......Does anyone know what kind of relationship Damo has with his old bandmates? (Just wondering......?)

He plays acoustic guitar on one of the tracks on the BellX1 album and theydo Volcano and Face as well,thats all I know!I'd say it would be very hard not to get on with a fellow Irish bands as they all seem to know each other and appear on each others songs and stuff.

Their version of Face is more chilled out so whichever your into.I think Damo's version of Volcano is better because of Lisa and the strings, and the build up at the end.

I love their vers of Face, wayyyy better. I agree with Jeweller thoigh, Volcano's a bit dodge. Seen the Bellies twice already, don't think I'll go at witnness. They're good, not great.
