Full Biography

Raquels Bell's are a vibrant and versatile Jazz duo of Vox and Guitar formed from Leeds Conservatoire, performing a wide selection of traditional Jazz songs, as well as more contemporary tunes rendered in an eclectic and engaging style! Having both achieved 1st Class Honours Degrees in Jazz Studies at Leeds Conservatoire, they have continued to grow and hone their skills as musicians, creating captivating performances and expanding their improvisational capabilities.

Sam was awarded the Conservatoire prize and scholarship in the 2014-15 cohort for outstanding results, whilst Raquel has firmly established herself on the UK music scene by melding her unique portugese style with modern Jazz. They now both live in London.

Raquels Bells have developed a wonderful rapport together, and can perform in either a soft and understated manner or with high intensity, deriving their influences from Swing, Gypsy Jazz, Blues and Latin.

A great hit with everyone

5 stars - Raquels Bells are Highly Recommended
booked Raquels Bells for their event in Berkshire September 2023

“We booked Raquel Bells for an 80th birthday party in our garden and they were fantastic. Wonderful to communicate with in the run up to the event, and very relaxed and helpful on the day. Their music was a big hit and they are an excellent duo. There were quite a few serious contemporary jazz fans in the group and everyone really enjoyed the range of songs and their personal style. They really helped to make it a very special day - thank you!”


Soothing jazz in a wine bar!

5 stars - Raquels Bells are Highly Recommended
booked Raquels Bells for their event May 2023

“My names Lorenzo and I run 89 Social, a wine bar in North London. We had closed for a few months to carry out some work and wanted to re open with a bang! I contacted Sam who was known to me in the area and alongisde his bandmate they were able to provide an evening of music that was traditional and in keeping with the wine bar aesthetic, but they also included modern repertoire and the tunes were lively and fun! I look forward to having them again.”


Jazzy vibes in Cornwall!

5 stars - Raquels Bells are Highly Recommended
booked Raquels Bells for their Wedding

“Raquels Bells were an absolute pleasure at our wedding in the cornish countryside. We went for a ceili barn theme, but wanted to have a bit of something for everyone, so we asked for some Jazz! Sam is from Cornwall so they were able to make the trip down with no trouble. They were very agreeable and polite and even took a few requests! The music was a great contrast and traversed many styles. Many Thanks”
