W.A. Alt-Country Rock. Americana with Australian themes and accents!

Maybe You Were Right

Things Are Looking Up

Ralway Bell is effectively a solo project for Ben Wilson - (former Crash Compass frontman and current guitarist for The Augustines.) 
In February 2011 Ben took long time friend, live audio engineer, and Ag bike rider Matt Landers, along with WAAPA fully ticketed Jared "Jeeves" Maxwell to the Blue Mountains for a week to record some tunes. All songs started as simple solo acoustic songs and gradually transformed to thier current state.
Ben enlisted the help of some far more competent musos in Dave Hunt, Skye Knight and Kate Melrose to add a few things here and there then left it in the capable hands of Matt Landers to mix, polish and master. Hope you like it.
