About Isabel:

Isabel Rumble weaves stories together with nuanced vocals to create a space of open-hearted intimacy and connection. Drawing upon a strong folk roots influence, Rumble offers a contemporary sound likened to Laura Marling and Mazzy Star, inviting listeners into a cocoon of reflection on the subtleties of love, nature and human relationships. Isabel’s intuitively crafted songs of her debut album “Bird Be Brave” define an observant and soul-stirring emerging young artist. Website / Facebook / Instagram
