Bella Deer

Join us for BELLA DEER’s first Naarm show at Mamma Chen’s since releasing her debut EP Age of Alchemy.

BELLA DEER is a singer/songwriter and performing artist from Geelong, Wadawurrung Country, known for her emotive storytelling, powerful vocals, and expansive sonic landscapes. Together with her 4 piece band they create a sound that blends raw lyricism and heartfelt melodies. Her music is often compared to Florence and the Machine, though she maintains a distinct voice all of her own. Bella has steadily built a dedicated following, captivating audiences with her emotional depth and raw performances.

Featuring support from Kelsey Jean and Franky (band).

Kelsey Jean:
The past few years have seen Kelsey making a name for herself as a whimsical and talented songwriter. Now with the aid of her new band, The Bad Health, she is transforming her sound. With a folk vein running through the core, they bring new energy with tight grooves and bold lead guitar. Taking heavy inspiration from both modern Melbourne folk & rock bands coupled with 70’s psychedelia, all a perfect backing for Kelsey’s poetic musings and elegant vocals.

Franky: @franky.music
Blurring the line between the timeless sounds of soul, and contemporary pop, FRANKY’s lyrics weave together all facets of the human experience; sorrow, troubling relationships, and heart-fluttering excitement. Hailing from Naarm, the band have been filling rooms with their irresistible melodies and groove-driven arrangements. Expect to boogie to their heartbreak tunes and leave their live set overwhelmed with infectious energy.

Mamma Chen’s acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and the Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation, the true owners of the land that we live and operate on. We would like to pay our respects to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
