Ysabella Brave

Ysabella Brave is a musical project that surfaced in London around the early 2010s, centered on vocalist Ysabella Matalon and guitarist Matthew Demerath. Their recorded work includes songs like 'Moon River' and 'Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay,' which are covers of older standards rather than original compositions. This suggests their approach leans toward interpretation within folk and indie styles.

In 2015, they put out a debut single called '1,000 Oceans' and an album titled 'The Fire Inside.' Later releases include 'Strangers' in 2019 and 'The Silent Sea' in 2023. Their catalog shows a shift from folk-oriented material to more ethereal, dance-pop sounds over time.

At one point, there were claims that '1,000 Oceans' resembled another song, but the band denied any plagiarism. Beyond that, their story is mostly about making music without much dramatic narrative. They've kept recording, with their most recent album coming out in 2023.
