“Everyone follow @Glockabelle: Real-deal nasty, insane, high-speed NYC noise-punk, not cool kids trading band like Pokémon cards. [She] took me back to when “noise punk” required ability, ambition, and executing your crazy ideas.”Chris Weingarten 

“How fucking cool was Glockabelle?” Chris Gethard of “The Chris Gethard Show”

New York City’s Annabelle Cazes’ eccentric sound stems from a combination of inspiration and circumstance. Born to Francophone parents, Cazes received an education both stateside and in France, creating the ability to sing in both French and English. After being introduced to the sound and styling of the Casio VL-Tones by a neighbor in Paris, Cazes’ began blending her classical piano techniques with modern synth-pop sounds resulting in beautiful mixture of rhythm and tone.

This new sound lead Glockabelle to a 2008 tour with Fiery Furnaces, landing her a set at Bonnaroo Music Festival. In 2010, Glockabelle composed an original piece for the Paris Cinema Festival which broadcasted in both French Cinemas and on national television. She has appeared on the Chris Gethard Show, the BJ Rubin Show, WFMU, performed at Art Basel Miami, opened for James Chance and Marnie Stern and performed with Shy Child at the Montreux Jazz Festival. She opened for Jack White’s Raconteurs while touring as a member of the Fiery Furnaces. The New York Times said of her performance on this tour, “Technique in action: The glockenspiel has a new heyday in indie-rock, following a lineage from Phil Spector through the E Street Band through U2’s first album to the Arcade Fire. But I haven’t seen one played the way the Fiery Furnaces did: not with mallets, but with thimbles on fingertips. That can make for more simultaneous notes, more busy metallic pling.”

In 2015, Glockabelle was a featured vocalist on the Go! Team album The Scene Between with the song “Catch Me on the Rebound.”

Wolf BBQ EP is a collection of mostly unreleased tracks. The result is a collection of equally playful and technically complex tracks filled with surf and punk tendencies, all brought together with her intricate synths and controlled madness. Check out the self-titled track HERE.


Catch her undeniable energy on live!
