"Astrud Gilberto meets Massive Attack" "The miraculous by-product of a collision of two vespas on a beach road in Turkey, bella nova is the musical partnership of Renee Stahl, the barefoot American female singing sensation, and Kevin Hunter whose band Wire Train has been a staple of discriminating listeners for the last decade. With nothing apparently in common aside from sexual magnetism these two found common musical ground in their love of Stan Getz's collaboration's with bossa nova stars of the sixties and the elegance of such modern acts as Air and Zero 7.
