LA-based indie pop artist BEL, born Isabel Whelan, joins The Happy Fits as direct support on the nationwide “Lovesick Tour 2026,” bringing her debut album ‘Holy Grail’ to stages across the country. The run marks a major step forward as BEL builds momentum following the release of her long-awaited full-length via Nettwerk. The road stretches coast to coast, and BEL steps into it with a record built for connection.
Produced by Jason Vance Harris (Role Model, Juliet Ivy), ‘Holy Grail’ unfolds as a cinematic, emotionally charged collection rooted in shimmer and self-reflection. BEL moves between magic, melancholy, and hope with diaristic precision. Onstage, those songs expand into a dynamic live set powered by warmth and presence.
“I started writing my debut album two years ago when I wrote the title track ‘Holy Grail.’ At the time, I wanted so many things for my life and career that all seemed so out of reach. Every song on the album is an archive of my hopes, dreams, joys, sorrows, and self-reflections in my quest for the Holy Grail. Everything is paired to a visual world that references my childhood dreams. ‘Holy Grail’ gives a window into what it feels like to go all in on your dreams and surrender to the unknown.”
