Bella Kaye (16 years old) is an up-and-coming pop singer-songwriter from Southern California. Drawing on influences from artists such as Taylor Swift, Madison Beer, Bea Miller and Nina Nesbitt, Bella brings her own style, intensity and emotion to the music she performs. Bella writes lyrics that are engaging and moving in a way that reflects her unique style. In 2018, Bella started publicly performing covers at local coffee shops, festivals, and county fairs and began writing her original music in the summer of 2018.

Born in Chicago, Bella’s innate love for singing and performing started at the early age of three. As a young child, her favorite activity was performing musical shows for her family. Starting in third grade, Bella spent several years performing as a featured member of the Chicago Children’s Choir, as well as singing solo performances with her school and musical performing camps. The confidence and ease she demonstrated on stage at such a young age was captivating and impressive. In 2015, Bella and her family moved to the Golden State to pursue her musical endeavors. Music videos followed shortly after, and she started her YouTube and Instagram accounts. 

In early 2017, Bella started learning guitar and by December that year, she performed her first open mic show at a local coffee shop that is well known in Southern California for launching talented artists. Immediately after getting off stage, she was approached by the booking manager who asked if she would perform at the upcoming Christmas show. Since that evening, she has been a regular performer at this coffee shop, as well as other local coffee shops, festivals and county fairs. In the summer of 2018, she performed several shows at the San Diego County Fair, which became a significant turning point in her musical aspirations. Performing on a big stage in front of a large audience was an exhilarating experience for her and one she couldn’t wait to experience again.

Following the 2018 fair, Bella began writing original music. Within two months, she wrote a dozen songs, writing songs in a way that others can connect with and relate to. Her first single, Heartache, is an emotional ballad that captures the pain of a broken heart. Released in November 2019, her debut EP Reflections touches on themes such as heartbreak, hope, drama and daydreaming.
