Belly

Artist:
BELLY: Tanya Donnelly started Belly in 1991 after being in Throwing Muses with her step-sister, Kirsten Hersh, and an earlier version of the Breeders with Kim Deal. The sound was alternative with ith a heavy pop-laden influence. The first album, Star, contained the college-radio heavy rotation song, Feed the Tree. Gail Greenwood joined the band when original bassist Fred Abong left. Greenwood's sound pushed Belly to a more rock sound. They released a second album, King, that reflected Greenwood's influence but it failed to have the same kind of success as Star. In 1997 Donnelly broke up Belly to pursue her own solo career. Here is Belly on The Letterman Show back in 1993 performing Feed the Tree.
