A dusty violin and the diary of a girl. A tale of two dreamers and their stories lost in time. Bella Koshka formed in Minneapolis, MN in autumn of 2006 when violinist Hilary Davis and vocalist Laura Boland began composing organic and electronic melodies. In winter of 2007, the pair collaborated with Minneapolis producer Darren Jackson (The Hopefuls, Kid Dakota) on their debut album, "Slow Dancing on the Ocean Floor." Scheduled to be released in early 2008, the album is a unique collection of melancholic lullabies featuring emotionally rich vocals and haunting violin arrangements intertwining with electronic textures. Matte Franklin [drums] and Matt Vannelli [synth guitar] joined Bella Koshka in autumn of 2007, bringing a dynamic intensity to their live shows.
