About Bel Canto

Bel Canto is a Norwegian music group formed in 1985 by Geir Jenssen and Nils Johansen, with vocalist Anneli Drecker joining soon after. They are known for their ethereal sound that blends elements of synth-pop, ambient, and world music. The band gained international attention with hits like 'Shimmering, Warm & Bright' and 'Unicorn.'

Bel Canto's lyrics often explore deep and reflective themes such as the search for true companionship, a sense of purpose, and the philosophy of human existence. Their music creates a mystical sanctuary for listeners, enveloping them in an inherent love and introspective journey. Over the years, their work has remained consistently profound and evocative.
