Bella brought their twofold boy-girl combo all the way from Vancouver for a mini-dance party led by rake-thin keyboardist/singer Cameron Fraser, whose unabashed moves included the robot. Showcasing material from their recent debut album, Pretty Mess, the quartet proved their flexibility by swapping instruments and vocal duties for their new wave postured indie pop. At times, the guitar of Matt Hutchings proved a little too powerful, but what they lost in sound they gained back in vitality and amusement.
