Dreamland (Wild Belle album)

Dreamland is the second studio album by the American brother/sister duo Wild Belle. It was released on April 15, 2016, by Columbia Records. The album is set of moody, groove-oriented songs with a deeper emotional impact and more influenced in their laid-back tropical vibe, supposedly due to the lead singer Natalie Bergman ending a toxic relationship during the record process.[2]
