Bellatrix and the Boxettes praise the SM58
The Boxettes are an all-female vocal group based in London . They are all trained vocalists with a natural talent to beatbox their distinctive sound, making fine use of the complementing styles of their voices.
Bellatrix and the Boxettes currently consists of Alyusha, Yvette, Neo and Harriet, and current World Female Beatbox Champion Bellatrix. There is certainly no weak link in any of the Boxettes….. they all Jazz Majored at the Guildhall School of Music! Popularity for the Boxettes is growing, with the release of their music video ‘Free’ gaining 20,000 views in the first two days. They are currently gigging all over Europe, and are also headlining at the Jazz Cafe 12 August 2011!
As the Boxettes music is entirely vocal, meaning no backing tracks or instruments other than their voices, it’s obvious that their choice of microphone matters!
“The SM58 is the only way for me. I didn’t wanna be obstinate to my own detriment so I’ve tried out plenty of options; the long and the short of it is – other mics just aren’t a scratch on the good old SM58. There’s a reason why it’s the universal beatboxing mic alongside the Beta58, with which I dabble.” said Belle, AKA Bellatrix of the Boxettes
Shure recognises talent when we hear it and we’re glad to know artists recognise a quality product when they use it!
