Real name: Ceylan Hay

“Bell Lungs” is the moniker of Scottish-Turkish vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, composer and community musician Ceylan Hay. Her music takes a freewheeling, magpie attitude to ambient, noise, free improvisation, psychedelia, jazz, minimalism and folk, creating subtly shifting sound worlds drawing on natural cycles, environmental disaster and the microcosmic aspects of relationships. Instrument collecting has been a passion of Ceylan’s for the past decade, and she plays a startling number of instruments, integrating vocals, strings, keys, tuned percussion and woodwinds into lushly textured layers and loops.
