Beggar's Belief Ltd. are a new three-piece commercial rock band with roots and Celtic influences.
The band's sound combines the commercial rock sensibilities of Del Amitri with the big roots rock feel of REM and the Celtic rock sensibilities of Big Country and the Wonder Stuff.
Beggar's Belief Ltd. slumped gently into life in the late Summer of 2003 when Legendary guitarist James Abbot started looking for an outlet for some songs ideas that he'd had festering for a year or two. He played a few riffs to former Mercy Street vocalist Ade Thomas who, in turn played them to Grief Society bassist Angus Nurse. All three musicians had been playing in Celtic rock band Nonesuch and a series of impromptu jams at Nurse's house followed. The trio developed an easy collaborative style and decided to record some of the finished songs. The results were good enough to convince all three that a new band was the only logical step to bring the music to a wider audience.
