7Th November 2021

As part of Lullaby by Luke Jerram for Historic Coventry Trust - Friend Or Foe were invited to reimagine the bicycle bell as part of a large scale collaborative piece to be played alongside original soundscape by Dan Jones and Guy Hughes.

The result was The Lullabells: an orchestra of modified and custom-built bells using a combination of traditional brass bells, aluminium rings, steel bells and finger cymbals, specifically chosen for their tonal qualities and tuned to the musical scales used in the composition, played by participants as they cycled through the streets of Coventry
