The 47-year-old shot to fame when she was just 19 as part of the popular band.Isobel Campbell looks incredible 26 years after quitting Belle and SebastianCredit: InstagramThe singer pictured back in 2006Credit: Times Newspapers LtdBelle and Sebastian was founded in 1996 by Stuart Murdoch.The group consisted of Stuart, Isobel, Stuart David, Stevie Jackson, Chris Geddes and Richard Colburn.Over the years they has released 12 studio albums which include hits such as The State I Am In and If You’re Feeling Sinister – and they are still a band now. However, Isobel is not part of it anymore.Read more on musicAfter six years in the group, Isobel decided to part ways with Belle and Sebastian.In 2002 the singer began working on her solo career.

It’s like completing a puzzle. In the beginning I was much less experienced. “After doing it for a while I learned to trust that even if something is not coming together sometimes something will, and it will be really good. “And sometimes if it doesn’t come together then just leave it, you can’t really force it.”I usually just trust what will feel right, but then try not to worry too much if it doesn’t.READ MORE SUN STORIES”I think it’s good to edit a lot and move on to the thing that is actually working. “And sometimes it’s unpredictable, because sometimes an idea that I’m most excited about will be quite disappointing and then sometimes something that’s throwaway will be the best thing. It’s a mysterious mistress.” More
