Belles Unveils Highly-Anticipated Self-Titled EP

Trailblazing country artist Belles has officially released her self-titled EP, Belles, out today. 

Produced by Sam Grow and Johnny Gates, Belles is a six-track collection that explores themes of love, heartbreak, resilience, and self-discovery, showcasing the emotional depth and range that have become trademarks of Belles’ songwriting. The heart-wrenching centerpiece, “Ring on the Table,” is a poignant, cinematic narrative that delves deep into themes of independence, tough choices, and walking away from a love that no longer serves you. 

“This EP is the most authentic version of myself, Belles shares. Each track tells a piece of my journey – from the hardships and the breakthroughs. ‘Ring on the Table’ really brings it all together, embracing the theme of following your intuition and creating your own path, even when it’s hard. I hope these songs reach the people who need them, wherever they are on their own journey.”

“Ring on the Table” unfolds the rise and fall of a relationship, anchored by the recurring image of a ring left behind. It begins with a picture-perfect promise – dreams of a white dress, a family, and a forever home. But beneath the surface, broken promises, hidden bruises, and quiet despair lurk. As the story unfolds, the arrival of a baby brings hope, only for addiction and recklessness to deepen the cracks. Ultimately, the once-idyllic life is reduced to an empty house, an unused cradle, and a ring abandoned – a symbol of love that has shifted to survival. 

Drawing inspiration from legends like Loretta Lynn and June Carter Cash, Belles reimagines the classic country sound for today’s world. With tracks like “Porcelain” and “Ring on the Table,” she invites listeners into a space where vintage charm meets modern, dreamy vocals – fusing the spirit of Music Row with the heart of East Nashville.

Following the viral success of her single “Crazy As Me,” which sparked a massive surge in social engagement and a 400% increase in streams, Belles continues to create music that resonates across generations. She isn’t just making songs; she’s crafting an experience that bridges the rich legacy of the Grand Ole Opry with the bold, electrifying spirit of country music’s next generation.
