Why Bells Larsen decided to sing duets with his past self
On Bells Larsen’s stunning album Blurring Time he has an unlikely collaborator — himself. Bells is a trans man and he first recorded the album in his pre-transition voice with the intent of revisiting the songs after he started hormone therapy. The result is a unique self-collaboration, in which he harmonizes with himself. Last year, the Canadian singer-songwriter sat down with Tom Power to talk about the record and having to cancel his U.S. tour.
