An article in Stuff.co.nz says, "Having a bunch of songs that didn't fit into a "traditional band setting" gave birth to the Bellbirds."[3]

They played at WOMAD New Zealand, Taranaki on 13 and 14 March 2010.[4]

All four members of the Bellbirds are involved with the recording of Neil Finn's album Out of Silence, in August 2017.[5]
