WHEREVER YOU ARE, CELEBRATE THE NORTHERN SPRING WITH ‘FLOWER’
Very much in the Norah Jones jazz/pop genre, ‘Flower’ is the jewel in the crown of The Steve Bell Projects ‘Two of Us’ EP. While it’s got mellow smooth jazz feel, the song carries great meaning; celebrating a young woman’s desire to grow and make her mark despite the words and obstructions of others. The song stands…
THE EP ‘TWO OF US’ – A TRULY INTERNATIONAL

Old ‘Powerful’ Men and Wars
I have a theory that most wars ultimately happen because there are a few powerful old men who can’t let go of ideas that lack application in the new world. I also suspect most kids don’t have any idea about why many of the ideas of these old powerful men are important to their own…
HOWEVER CHALLENGING, IT WAS TIME TO FREE OUR CHILDREN.

My Way of Defying the Age Things.
‘Ok so I am in my fifties and well passed my midlife crisis. In fact I had about three of those from the age of 35 to 45. It was a fair ride for me and those around me. These days I totally accept my age but stare down the limitations it might seem to…
Get Selfish About Who You Choose to Love
