Belinda Blair is a singer/songwriter, recording artist, performer and bandleader. She earned her Masters at San Francisco State University after embarking on a grassroots tour of Europe that began on the streets of Paris. Belinda fell under the influence of a young, international jazz scene led by preeminent players, where she expanded her musical talents beyond the tortured jazz singer. She lived and toured in England, France and Switzerland in a variety of acts ranging from swing to indie acoustic singer/songwriter, eventually making her way to the San Francisco Bay Area.

 

I met Belinda through an old friend of mine, KB, who also co-produced the album and played guitar throughout Life Copies Movies. The album is a collection of 11 songs that captures Belinda's distinctive approach to songwriting and performance, moving between alternative, jazz-informed and more experimental territory. The album includes songs such as “Android in Polyester,” “Nothing Is My Friend,” “Girl With Amnesia,” and “Secret of the Universe,” with Life Copies Movies also serving as the title track.
