We first heard of Louie Bello when he recently performed at New York’s monthly Soul Factory concert. But Louie has been writing and performing around the United States for many years, most notably in NYC where he has played at venues ranging from the Apollo Theater to New York Mets Citi Field. He has drawn comparisons to Stevie Wonder, Frank Sinatra and Bruno Mars with his smooth vocals and exciting stage show. Recently he was nominated for a Hollywood Music and Media award as well as a four time Boston Music Award Nominee. His most recent writing project landed him the title track on ESPN CLASSIC documentary PUSH Madison vs Madison.
Louie has a new single that’s getting some attention. It’s a nice mix of classic wall-of-sound soul and an upbeat, Summer feel. “Shotgun” is our newest SoulTracks First Listen, so check it out below and tell us what you think!
