Released in 2021 on Kill Rock Stars, Merlynn Belle is the sophomore album from Austin, Texas psych-pop outfit Tele Novella. The record marks a deliberate creative shift, trading polished production for a warm, DIY aesthetic that showcases the band's eclectic sensibilities and the captivating voice of frontwoman Natalie Ribbons.
Merlynn Belle is a homespun bricolage of sounds, weaving together influences that span cowboy troubadour ballads, folk baroque, and cinematic psych-pop. Ribbons' velvety vocals glide over an imaginative array of instruments — harmonium, autoharp, vibraphone, and Optigon among them — resulting in a record that feels at once mysterious, deeply personal, and wholly original.
