Having had a very busy day, I was very disappointed to arrive to find I'd just missed The Tim McMillan band. He always puts on a very entertaining show. But my disappointment was quickly washed away as the mighty Bellusira took the stage in the Gershwin Room. Unveiling a new guitarist, they have actually dropped back from a twin guitar band to a single six stringer, but it doesn't appear to have affected their sound whatsoever. In fact, their sound seems to be even bigger than it was, as was their performance and stage presence. An exciting way to start my evening's entertainment. - Beat Magazine
With a set consisting of a couple of new songs, as well as tracks from their Enigmatic EP, second act Bellusira went on from where Fading Hour left off, providing an outstanding set of melodic rock. Their set highlight was easily the band’s latest single (and best song to date) ‘Closer To Me.’ Vocalist Crystal Ignite was her typically energetic self, working the crowd with ease and impressing with her outstanding vocals. - Life, Music, Media
How a band of this caliber has remained unsigned is hard to fathom. The film clip accompanying their single demonstrates a committed, professional approach; made all the more impressive by knowing they are independent of any big label. - http://www.liveguide.com.au
Melbourne alternative rock five- piece Bellusira had a pretty damn memorable last half of 2010: they released their latest single Closer To Me , and launched it with an extremely successful show at The Northcote Social Club in August. The single also then received solid airplay on commercial radio across Melbourne and elsewhere. Plus, of course, the band toured internationally for the first time, completing a highly successful tour of New Zealand in October. They then conceived, filmed and released the slick and spectacular video for the song, which has already received rave reviews from various quarters. Essentially the last six months have been a highly productive time for this ambitious and talented act. - Beat Magazine
“Bellusira Kicks major ass and deserves to be up there among the best new international rock bands.
They've got a fresh take on songwriting that makes you want to hear more and a killer lead vocalist.
Look for big things from this talented group.”
- Mike Barbiero (Grammy Award winning producer/Engineer - Metallica, Guns & Roses, John Lennon.) - THE WORLD

Bio
After cementing a name across Australia with their energetic live show and heavy melodic rock tracks; Bellusira decided early in 2014 to make the bold move of heading across to America and setting up camp in Los Angeles.
Once they had arrived in LA they played a couple of shows around the country including Fort Rock Festival (Ft. Myers), Florida Music Festival (Florida), SXSW Festival (Austin, TX) and The Aussie BBQ Showcase back in LA.
A couple of months later they went into the studio to work on a brand new EP with grammy nominated producer Ulrich Wild (Static-X, White Zombie, Pantera, Deftones etc).
Just recently Lucius Borich aka Loosh from highly successful Australian Prog Rock outfit Cog came over to join the group in LA on the drums.
