Bello Spark is essentially a duo consisting of Rob Jordan (vocals) and Tory Peterson (guitar). With the addition of drums and bass they make pop/rock that would be right at home with the various other angst-laden ballads on commercial pop/rock/country radio. What makes this disc stand out from the rest? Keyboards nicely round out the sound and this debut has been expertly mixed/engineered right here in Grand Rapids. Rebecca RuthPICKWICK
